Description

Tourism is very seasonal. We were doing well in the summer months, but we wanted to employ the staff whom we’d otherwise have to lay off in winter. So we looked for other things to do with the sea water and came up with sea salt. We are open 10am to 5pm seven days a week throughout the year, except for a 12-day closure over the Christmas and New Year period. Since March 2015, we have been proud to offer ‘behind the scenes’ tours around TŷHalen. Our one of a kind tour is recommended for anyone interested in salt’s place in our history, culture and food, and in what makes Halen Môn Sea Salt PDO the world’s finest seasoning.

Salt, like bread, is the staff of life. At Halen Môn they pride themselves on producing the purest sea salt you can buy. Halen Môn salt is the brainchild of husband and wife entrepreneur team Alison and David Lea-Wilson. They were already responsible for a successful seafood business and the Anglesey Sea Zoo (next door in Brynsiencyn). They were seeking a new enterprise and saw a niche in the food market for gourmet salt. The shop adjoining the factory in Anglesey sells a huge array of their products, which not only includes salt but also smoked water, sauces, honey and gifts.

We did the tour with Mike. We weren’t sure what to expect and he explained the processes in great detail and answered any questions we had. There was a tasting at the end and our view of salt has totally changed and I don’t think we will use table salt again. The gin we tasted was great. This is a must visit for your family and will convert you from ever using ordinary salt ever again. We turned up on the wrong day for the seaweed bath and they were so lovely and accommodating. Thankfully they fitted us in. This was an exceptional experience, my skin feels amazing and it was so relaxing. Our one-of-a-kind tour is for anyone interested in salt’s place in our history, culture, food and in what makes Halen Môn Sea Salt a world-famous seasoning. You will finish your 45 minute tour with a tutored tasting. The contemporary building also houses a beautiful kitchen/ gift shop (you don't need to book a tour to visit the shop.)An innovative artisan food company that lets visitors look behind the scenes of a family business, has a contemporary, design-led gift shop and, new for 2023, offers Wild Seaweed Bathing. Groups Accepted - We can accommodate groups of between 14 and 24 by arrangement (Monday - Friday), and up to 40 at weekends. In light of recent press regarding other British sea salts, and in response to the numerous enquiries we have received, we just wanted to re-iterate how we make our own award winning sea salt. In countryside - Our saltcote is located on the shores of the Menai Strait in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Authenticity’ is a word which is often over-used, however when it comes to Anglesey Sea Salt and Halen Môn, there is no other way to describe this innovation. In 1997, Alison and David Lea Wilson boiled Anglesey sea water on their Aga and unknowingly initiated a hugely successful company. They are now ambassadors for their globally renowned salt which is completely additive free and contains over 30 naturally occurring trace elements and minerals.

Led by a trained guide the tour includes a tutored salt tasting and lasts approximately 50 minutes, the experience will offer visitors a real flavour of our company, and a chance to chat with members of staff. Tours usually run twice a day, Wednesday – Sunday 11am and 3pm Every day a pipeline takes fresh seawater from the Menai Strait into the factory. Here. after filtering through sand and charcoal, the water is heated to create a concentrated brine. This is left in shallow salt pans, where crystals form and sink to the bottom. Each morning, the salt flakes are carefully harvested using large shovels. The salt crystals are then washed in a cold saturated brine process to remove any unwanted carbonates. When the crystals are dried for the final time they produce a flaky crystal sea salt, which sparkles like newly fallen snow. We were asked to compare different salts. It was quite interesting to try their spiced salt and their smoked salt. The tour ended with us being given a little pot of Halen Môn sea salt to take away. And a bottle of water to keep us hydrated! The Halen Môn range has 10 salts, including one smoked over oak chips, one infused with vanilla, an Unami salt spice mixture and one made with charcoal.Open by appointment outside normal opening times - We can accommodate evening tours for groups of up to 40 by arrangement Approx length of visit - Tours and tutored tasting take about 50 minutes, but leave time to browse around our design-led shop.
