Salt Flavor Profile

The unique flavor in this bar was found in a local oyster called Happy Oysters.
Chef Chris Amendola accomplished this hyperlocal creation by working with the farmer of Sapidus Farms, Mike Manyak.
Mike shared water from his farm and Chris experimented until he was able to craft his own salt; this is also the finishing salt
