Old Coast Salt - Illuminated in his 1962 novel Big Sur, Jack Kerouac and his cronies frequently traveled on the “Old Coast Road” to gather at a colleague’s cabin, earning it the nickname “The Beatnik Byway.” Today, the road remains the same narrow dirt road those literary legends once traversed, still winding around the mossy riparian forests, over babbling brooks through the damp Bixby Canyon. The ingredients in this blend can be found along this amazing drive. If you make the trek, make sure you pull over in order to take it all in; the essence of this experience is hard to capture. Bring it to your table with this blend.  FLAVOR PROFILE: SAGE. 4 ounce. INGREDIENTS:  Pico Blanco sea salt, sage, leek, thyme, orange zest.
