sea salt is the type preferred by many followers of macrobiotic
teachers such as Georges and Lima Ohsawa. Marisol natural unprocessed,
additive-free, unrefined, hand-harvested, unwashed sea salt is
naturally very white and clean, without any artificial means
of whitening or washing, due to the hot summer temperatures in
the Algarve region, which result in a much whiter salt than that
produced in other colder regions such as France.
