A simple beginning--ocean water in a beer bottle--manifested his obsession; harvesting and creating these salt blends in a sometimes adventurous, ever passionate, and meticulous process. The resulting product is something magical; a way to enjoy the sensory pleasures of this bountiful natural resource without stepping foot - or leaving a footprint.
