A few photos from the very beginning of Tasman Sea Salt.

Back in July 2014, we harvested our very first tray of salt at Little Swanport. We were learning as we went — and looking back, there was quite a lot to learn.

Our first saltworks had everything in one shed: the crystallisation pan, dryer and packaging machine. It didn't take us long to discover that putting freshly dried, hygroscopic salt in the same room as a lot of moisture was not our best idea.

Our first evaporator was basic and slightly homemade. Our systems were a work in progress. And Chris and I both looked considerably younger.

But the salt itself? Those first batches produced the same pure white sea salt flakes that we still harvest here today.

A lot has changed at the saltworks over the past 12 years. We've learnt, adapted and refined how we do things, while continuing to work with the same extraordinary natural resource that started it all — the pristine ocean water here on Tasmania's east coast.

It's quite something to look back at where it all began.

A little look behind the scenes at Tasman Sea Salt.

We recently welcomed Jonno and the team to Little Swanport, where we showed them around the saltworks and The Salt Cellar — and, of course, tasted some salt.

Our visit featured on Channel 10 recently, but it turns out that wasn't the end of Tasman Sea Salt's appearance on the show.

Jonno took our Natural Flakes and Pepper Berry Salt with him on the road, using them in his recipes throughout all four Tasmanian episodes.

Here's a glimpse of their visit to the saltworks.

Thanks for coming to see us, What's Up Downunder — and for taking a little Tasman Sea Salt along for the rest of the journey.

We’re taking The Salt Masterclass on the road.

This September and October, we’ll be travelling from Tasmania to Queensland, Melbourne and Sydney to share a guided exploration of salt, food and flavour.

First stop: the Gold Coast.

We’re joining BURLEIGH DELI ~ CAFE for an intimate evening designed to show just how much the right salt can change what you taste.

We’ll begin with a welcome drink and grazing plate from Golosi before sharing the story of our salt—from the pristine waters of Tasmania’s east coast to the naturally occurring energy we harness to harvest it.

Then we’ll taste.

Through a series of guided food and salt pairings, we’ll explore the individual character of our Natural Sea Salt Flakes, Smoked Salt, Wakame Seaweed Salt and Pepper Berry Salt—and discover what each one can reveal in an ingredient.

Friday 18 September | 6pm
Golosi Food Emporium, Burleigh Heads
$45 per person
Only 12 places

Your ticket includes a welcome drink, Golosi grazing plate and the full guided tasting experience.

Book Gold Coast tickets via the link in our bio.

We’ll also be stopping at Biome Paddington for a free tasting on 22 September, before taking The Salt Masterclass to Simon Johnson in Melbourne and Sydney this October.

Come curious—and leave looking at salt a little differently.

One of the things we enjoy most is seeing Tasmania's producers celebrated on the plate.

At .hobart, the menu changes with the seasons, showcasing exceptional local ingredients with a style that feels generous, thoughtful and full of flavour.

We're always grateful to see our Natural Flakes finding their place in kitchens that care so deeply about quality ingredients and letting them shine.

If you're in Hobart, we'd definitely recommend booking a table.

A little Pepper Berry for your weekend cooking.

Made with native Tasmanian pepper berry, our Pepper Berry Salt brings aromatic spice, fruity warmth and a little extra character to whatever you're cooking.

We love it as a finishing salt — a pinch over lamb or steak, roasted vegetables, tomatoes or even fresh fruit before serving.

Simple, but it can completely change the final dish.

Pepper Berry and lamb. A very Tasmanian pairing.

Keep the lamb simple—grilled cutlets, a little olive oil and a generous sprinkle of Pepper Berry Salt just before serving.

The native Tasmanian pepper berry brings aromatic spice, subtle fruitiness and gentle warmth, while letting the flavour of the lamb remain the focus.

Serve with a simple rocket salad and a squeeze of lime.

An easy one for the barbecue, whatever the season.

This week we welcomed Tasmania's tourism and hospitality community to The Salt Cellar.

It was a chance to share what we've created here — a place to discover how our salt is harvested, taste the difference between our salts, and experience how they can reveal flavour in food.

Local chef Zac Green Zac Green brought that last part to life, creating a menu around Tasmanian produce and our salts — from fresh tuna with Wakame Seaweed Salt to grilled beef finished with Pepper Berry.

It was a wonderful way to share what The Salt Cellar is all about: salt, food, people and place.

Thank you to everyone who made the trip to Little Swanport, shared ideas and spent the afternoon with us.

We loved having you here.

Winter might just be our favourite time to explore Freycinet.

Bright, cool days. Crisp air. Fewer people on the tracks. And, if you're lucky, barely a breath of wind.

Whether it's the climb up Mt Amos, the walk to Wineglass Bay Lookout, heading down to the beach, or taking on the longer Freycinet circuit, there are walks for just about every age and appetite for adventure.

We feel incredibly lucky to have this landscape on our doorstep.

If you're visiting Tasmania's east coast in winter, pack your walking shoes.

Some things never leave the kitchen bench.

A bottle of olive oil.

A favourite knife.

And a salt you reach for every day.

Our Natural Flakes are made for everyday cooking—seasoning as you cook, tasting as you go, and finishing with a final sprinkle when the meal comes to the table.

Pure Australian sea salt flakes, sustainably harvested from Tasmania's east coast.

Nothing added.

Nothing removed.

The best baking lets every ingredient play its part.

From flaky pastries and perfectly baked cookies to their famous pretzels, every visit to Cobb Lane is a reminder that simple ingredients, treated with care, can create something truly memorable.

We're proud to see our salt mixes in store, and our Natural Flakes used by their talented team to help reveal flavour in every bake.

If you're in Melbourne, they're well worth a visit.
