I have always used sea salt, but this is by far the best tasting sea salt and the only one we buy now. It is stronger so you don't even need as much but you can taste the difference. My family thought I was crazy, salt is salt, until I gave them a taste test on a slice of tomato. Now they understand.

I'm a Mainer living in the South, and I never let myself run out of this salt. The coarse salt has an amazing flavor, and the texture really adds to it as well. It's completely worth it.

It's Maine Sea Salt - it doesn't get any better. Great product and service.

I'll be seventy next month. This is the best salt I have ever used.

We have been using Maine sea salt for a number of years. They way it’s made, the way it taste, the natural minerals in it are all “ The way life should be” Great product and worth every dime. We will only use Maine sea salt. It comes from the pristine clean clear waters of Maine. Can’t say enough. Our favorite salt by far.

I am not a salt expert but I have tried several from different companies. THIS is my go to salt company for sea salt and smoked salts. I can taste the difference and it enhances everything I cook with it!

I like using sea salt knowing that the trace minerals are still present - even if in small amounts. This sea salt has to be far fresher than the salt that sits on the grocery shelves, especially true after seeing the process and having it personally explained by the wonderful owner of the Maine Sea Salt Company. BTW it also makes the food taste great. I like the coarse salt for my grinder that goes on the table.

I've pretty much switched over to the Maine Sea Salt coarse salt for all of my cooking and on the table top. I use the coarse salt straight as a finishing salt, and I've got one of their grinders that I re-fill with it, and use that for cooking and seasoning and at the table. It's absolutely delicious and I love that I'm consuming a Maine product!

My favorite salt. Ever. Gorgeous finishing salt - just the right amount of crunch. A little goes a long way but there's no reason to be stingy

I've purchased this salt for several years. I use and put on everything. I love the video on how they harvest the salt from the ocean and evaporate in their evaporators.

An outstanding salt. A bit more trouble to work with because of its natural moisture content, but the full salty flavor, with a hint of the Atlantic, enhances almost any food.

I keep my in a pottery dish I purchased at Silver Dollar City Pioneer Theme Park in Branson , Missouri. I use this salt for EVERY use. I love the fact that it is straight from the ocean and unadulterated.

This is the salt that so many top chefs around the country covet! The waters of Far East Maine are crystal clear, cold and well, salty! The coarse ground is great sprinkled on any food and adds the perfect salty crunch to bring out the best in any dish. Maine Sea Salt Rocks!

I was given a substitute instead that I cannot use in my grinder, then told I should have ordered something else that isn't listed on the website. When I asked how to order a refill bag for my grinder I got no response. I am looking for another product to replace this. I used to be proud that it came from my home state but no more. After seven years a loyal local customer, I am moving on.

Now that I have tried this salt I don't think I can go back to the regular stuff!!!The flavor is a revelation. Wow! The texture is great: flaky/grainy, REAL. A Most Excellent Salt to add to your kitchen.

I ordered from a lobster company and this salt came with it. it was to be used to cook the lobster and potatoes. It added a delicious flavor to the potatoes and the lobster and I liked it so much I ordered more to have at home to cook with.

Am delighted with this product. I use it daily, by the pinch, from a salt pig. It finishes my dishes a subtle, delightful crunch. The salt has an ever-so-slightly moist feel to it, which makes perfect sense. The salt pig helps me get the right size pinch. I love the fact that it is salty and the crystals are large enough to taste without being too big. I go through a pound of this stuff every three months or so, without apology.

I found this product while in the Berkshire's last summer. I thought I would give it a try as I use sea salt exclusively. Once I tried I was hooked. Thankfully there is a web site to make future purchases. The guy who came up with this concept is brilliant. The pristine Maine waters provide an excellent salt for every day use. I plan to use no other. Thanks Maine Sea Salt.

Great taste. Great texture for finishing dishes and good for grinders too. The go-to salt for New Englanders.

We go through this salt like crazy. It's perfect for finishing due to a coarse (but not too coarse) grain size. Delicious salinity and made in the USA. Can't beat it!! It's my husband's go-to salt for bread baking, too.

Full disclosure -- I am fully addicted to this stuff. I love the flakiness of it and the satisfying crunch it gives as a last-minute garnish. Be aware that this is not your father's old dry salt -- it is pinchable and has a relatively high moisture content, which makes it perfect for pinching. This does not pour.
