Jacobsen Salt Co

I never imagined id be someone that would carry a ton of different spices in my kitchen let alone a ton of different salts. I think a trip to the French Laundry had opened my eyes to how different the soil, minerals and other intangibles of land and water effect flavor. So now when i hear or see of an artisan purveyor I add it to the cooking repertoire. Id heard a lot of Jacobsen and their old school ways of harvesting this most important of spices. When I saw April Bloomfield go through the whole process on Mind Of A Chef, i knew i had to get my hands on Jacobsen while in town. Not only did i haul a fair share home, i went to many a place that uses Jacobsen in their cuisine. It’s amazing what salt does for one’s cooking and how a top notch spice can make it that much better

OK, all you licorice lovers (as I) …seek no more !!! The best licorice the world has to offer. I have been on a continuing quest to find the winner… and wella… my search is over. One can mail order this treat as well as other foods which I intend to sample one by one. What a superior enterprise this shopkeeper created… GREAT website too !!!
A MUST

Awesome — nothing but the best. Stop by to visit and sample! The Stumptown Coffee salt is my favorite.

Great venue. Centrally located. I’m already a convert to the salt, since many of my favorite local eateries use it, especially as a finish. If you have a fine piece of meat, a little of these flavor crystals on top will take it to the next level. It’s just salt l, right? Try it for yourself!

Gorgeous, light filled space. Jacobsen’s products are top quality and delicious. Staff was so friendly and knowledgeable. Great place to visit when coming to Portland!

Worth the stop. Beautiful space!
They’re hosting a dinner tonight with some great chefs. A great addition to SE Portland’s burgeoning food scene.
