Black Salt:
Kala Namak or Black Salt is actually pinkish grey in color and has a distinctive sulfur - like flavor. This salt is widely used in India in chaats, chutney, raitas and other dishes as well as a table condiment.
Celtic Gray Salt
One of two salts produced in Brittany in Northern France, Celtic Gray Salt is hand harvested from salt ponds using rakes by "Paludiers". The gray color of this coarse salt comes from its high mineral and nutrient content. Celtic Gray salt is used in a wide range of applications in France including bread, soups and sauces. While the crystals are large, they dissolve quickly and evenly due to their high moisture content.

Crystal Rock Salt
Rock salt is high in minerals and imparts a rich, tangy, flavor to foods. Crystal rock salt is often used on pretzels and breadsticks where its large grains can be easily seen. Grind this salt in a mill or use a mortar and petle.
Fleur Del Sel
Many consider Fleur Del Sel, which is produced in Brittany, the ultimate salt. This salt has an exquisitely delicate, yet complex flavor. Fleur Del Sel is produced in the same ponds as the Celtic Gray Salt and is produced from the fine, delicate film formed on the water when the Celtic Gray salt is harvested. This salt has small flaky crystals, a moist texture and a grey/ pink color. It should be used as a finishing salt for vegetables and grilled meats.
Italian Sea Salt
This fine sea salt is obtained naturally from ponds on the Italian sea shore. It contains only 34% sodium chloride and is rich in trace minerals. This salt is an excellent choice for condiment mills.
Hawaiian Red Sea Salt
The red color of this sea salt comes from trace amounts of iron oxide. Traditionally Hawaiians used this mineral rich salt in ceremonies to cleanse, purify and bless tools and canoes, as well as for medicinal purposes. Hawaiian Red Sea Salt's unique color and flavor make it a great finishing salt. It can be used anywhere regular table salt is used and is a great hostess or holiday gift.
