Cyprus Black Salt

B tier

Cyprus black salt forms pyramid flakes like Mediterranean white flake salts but is coloured black with charcoal or mineral treatment for dramatic plating. Crunch mirrors other pyramid flakes; colour is the differentiator. Finish light-coloured foods for contrast. A visual cousin to black lava styles with Mediterranean flake geometry.
