Jacobsen Salt

Fancy salt indeed! I feel my world has changed. The little tasting hut is cute and the service was fabulous. The person helping us out explained all about the process to create their wonderful products and had us smell and taste the different salts.
I was with a group and there were a few other folks there at the same time and we all enjoyed the products and everyone bought some Jacobsen salts before departing.
White truffle salt.
Black garlic salt.
And for some collabs… They also have Spielman bagel chips! Yussss. One of my fave Portland bagel shops! Duh. Had to get some.
Used the black garlic salt and cherrywood smoked salt for dinner and it was amazing!
Awesome accident! My purse smells like truffle every time I open it now.
Check them out!

We’ve been buying this lovely salt for a couple years at the Tillamook Farmers Market and decided to visit «the source» this April. It’s a fascinating operation all around, amazing the level of finesse and timing it takes to get the crystals to form the way they do.
They have a cute gift shop there where we picked up three different salts (they have a lot to choose from) and did some taste testing back at our rental with grilled Netarts oysters. Great stuff, the gift shop also takes cards as well.

We ventured out to the Tillamook location without knowing what to expect. There was a functional tasting room (nothing fancy) next to the salt factory where they harvest the salt from sea water. It’s fascinating to see where the William Sonoma-​stocked salt came from. The place is about 20 minutes away from the Tillamook Cheese Factory.
