Why Choose Smoked Salt Over Liquid Smoke?

Smoked salt is salt that's been infused with real wood smoke—never artificial flavors or colors. Unlike liquid smoke, which is often made with additives, true smoked salt delivers a pure, natural smoky flavor.

Smoked salt is crafted by slowly smoking unrefined sea salt over natural, bark-free wood. The result? A rich, flame-grilled taste that enhances everything from meats and veggies to salads and even desserts. Redmond’s Smoked Real Salt® is made with an all-wood smoking process—no liquid smoke, no artificial ingredients, and no shortcuts.
