Halen môn is the purest of salts, emerging from the clean seas that lap against Anglesey's shore. Unrefined and without additives, this salt offers a unique taste - smooth yet intense with no hint of bitterness. You can purchase it in its simple form or choose among flavored varieties blended with natural ingredients like celery seeds or organic spices; Halen Mon also comes as smoked oak-infused flakes adding depth to any dish you may create!

West Wales is home to a unique wild salmon, the Salmo salar species. It can be identified by its silver skin and dark blue back. Its texture is firm yet full of beneficial oils, making it perfect for grilling or poaching- all whilst smelling delicious!
