The Collection: Three Pillars of Flavor
01. Godai Plum Salt (Wakayama)
The Soul of the Sun-Ripened Plum
The Story: Crafted from world-renowned Kishu Nanko Plums, this salt is a labor of patience. For 30 days, the plums are steeped in natural sea salt to create "Ume-zu" (plum vinegar) rich in organic acids. This vibrant brine is then blended with mineral-rich salt to capture the essence of the fruit.
Flavor Profile: A refreshing burst of fruity acidity balanced by deep mineral saltiness.
Texture: Fine, ruby-hued crystals infused with plum essence.
Best For: Finishing grilled salmon, avocado toast, or adding a sophisticated "ruby rim" to your favorite Margarita.
02. Shiroebi "Jewel" Salt (Toyama)
The Sweetness of the Deep Sea
The Story: Infused with the "Jewel of the Deep Sea"—rare, transparent Shiroebi shrimp found only in the crystal-clear depths of Toyama Bay. This salt combines the delicate sweetness of the shrimp with mellow roasted sea salt for a deep, artisanal finish.
Flavor Profile: Elegant sweetness with a rich, roasted seafood umami.
Texture: Mellow, crunchy roasted crystals.
Best For: Sprinkling over gourmet popcorn, cream-based pastas, roasted potatoes, or deviled eggs.
Allergen Note: Contains Shrimp (Crustaceans).
03. Shizuoka Tea Salt (Shizuoka)
The Harmony of Mountain and Sea
The Story: A pure, additive-free fusion of premium Shizuoka green tea leaves and hand-harvested "Heda" sea salt. This "Clean Label" seasoning captures the essence of the Japanese countryside, bringing the tranquility of a tea garden to your table.
Flavor Profile: Delicate earthy bitterness from the tea leaves paired with a crisp, clean finish.
Texture: A fine, aromatic blend of mountain herbs and sea minerals.
Best For: White fish crudo, vanilla bean ice cream (for a sweet & salty twist), or tempura-style fresh greens.
