Why Icelandic Sea Salt Is So Expensive, So Expensive

Handharvested Icelandic sea salt could cost you more than 30 times the price of table salt. Housed in one of the most remote and coldest locations in the country, Saltverk salt factory produces 10 metric tons of salt each year. But theres one other thing thats unique about the way its processed: Everything is powered entirely by geothermal energy. Unlike processed rock salt, the sea minerals remain in the crystals but these are only a tiny percentage of the final product. The final result is very minimally processed, flaky sea salt from clear Icelandic waters.
