The salt sommelier in winter

Warm up this winter with Tasman Sea Salt.

While it may be wild and wintry on the east coast of Tasmania this Off-Season, we'll help you take the chill off with a welcoming hot umami broth-shot to warm the insides, as you take a tour of Tasman Sea Salt's unique clean energy saltworks.

Then head up to Mayfield Estate and warm yourself in front of the wood fire, before enjoying sea salt tastings and wonderful views across the rugged Freycinet Peninsula from the warmth of the cellar door.

  • Enjoy an immersive tour of the saltworks, learning how we use naturally occurring energy to harvest our pure sea salt flakes, through a production process that is the only one of its kind in the world.

  • Afterwards, we’ll dive into the world of sea salt - find out about the importance of sea salt, both for our bodies and as a seasoning, how it impacts flavour and the way we taste food, and why this humble mineral has been responsible for the rise and fall of empires.

  • Enjoy this intimate experience while sampling a selection of small bites pairing our sea salts with locally sourced produce.
