Lea-Wilson Family

Contributor

The Lea-Wilson’s lives have centered around sea salt – making it, perfecting it and travelling the world selling it – for over twenty years. They made their first batch from the sparkling seas around Anglesey, an island off North Wales, in a saucepan on an old Aga in 1997. Halen Môn (Anglesey Salt), was born.

Nowadays, their pans may be a little bigger, but their ethos and provenance remain the same. Their commitment to the craft has earned them Protected Designation of Origin status. They supply home cooks and Michelin-starred chefs the world over, have seasoned Barack Obama’s favorite caramels and are a named ingredient in a variety of products from Pipers Crisps to Green and Black’s chocolate.

It is a love of both the island of Anglesey and the pleasure of good food that spurs the family-run company forward, and their range of award-winning, flavorful condiments and seasonings is expanding to evermore delicious heights.
