Fleur de sel in a mini ceramic pot

Fleur de Sel in a mini ceramic pot, the icon in miniature

Sal de Ibiza Fleur de Sel in a turquoise mini ceramic pot brings the hand-harvested salt blossoms from the Ses Salines Natural Park to pocket-sized format – 29 grams to take with you, give as a gift, and fall in love with.

The Fleur de Sel in the mini ceramic pot is the little sister of the turquoise icon from Sal de Ibiza: the same hand-harvested salt blossom from the salt flats of Ibiza, the same cork lid, the same design – just in a cute 29-gram format that fits in any bag and sparks conversations on any table.

Do not underestimate these 29 grams: Fleur de Sel is dosed in pinches, not spoonfuls – the little pot will accompany you through a surprising number of meals before the bottom becomes visible. For a salt of this class, the mini is also the gentlest entry point in terms of price: buy small, taste big, come back for more.

Small, turquoise, and full of salt blossom

The little pot contains the same Fleur de Sel that has made the brand famous since 2004: It forms as a paper-thin crystal layer on the salt pools in the Parque Natural de Ses Salines, is skimmed by hand, and makes up less than 1 percent of the harvest. Mild, fine, delicately crunchy – a salt that you treat like a spice.

The salt flats in the south of Ibiza have been a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1999, and harvesting has taken place there for over 2,700 years. A lot of history for such a small vessel – and that is exactly what makes it so charming.

A little pot for luggage and hosts

The mini format has a surprising number of talents: It travels in a picnic basket and in carry-on luggage, sits on the folding table while camping, waits in a desk drawer at the office – and as a guest gift, it beats any box of chocolates. It also looks great on a festive table: one pot per end of the table, and passing the salt back and forth comes to an end.

Anyone who has once started seasoning with Fleur de Sel – over eggs, tomatoes, avocado toast, or seared meat – usually soon switches to the large ceramic pot with 150 grams. The mini is, so to speak, the most beautiful entry ticket into the world of salt blossoms.

The format is also ideal for trying it out: If you have never used Fleur de Sel before, you will learn here without a big investment how the crystals work – crunchy, mild, precise. A pinch on a boiled egg is enough as a lesson, the rest comes naturally.

From the salt flats of Ibiza to your pocket

Behind the small pot is the entire story of the brand: Since autumn 2003, Berlin native Daniel Witte has been importing the white gold of the Balearic Islands, followed in 2004 by the first turquoise ceramic pot – today a design icon among gourmet salts. The mini adopts the look, the little spoon logic, and the contents on a 1-to-5 scale.

Of course, even the small pot is not a disposable item: once empty, it can be refilled with the refill bag – or it begins a second life as a vessel for spices, flower petals, or paperclips. You can find more fine crystals in our category Fleur de Sel & Flor de Sal, and the entire assortment from the island on the Sal de Ibiza page. Small in format, big in impact – and surprisingly often the beginning of a long-lasting love affair with salt!

And if the trial becomes a habit – which, experience shows, happens quickly – the large pot is already waiting: same salt flats, same turquoise, five times the contents. That is how a little curiosity naturally grows into a permanent fixture on the dining table.
