Sensory Description:

The broad, delicate flakes provide a light initial crunch before settling into clean, direct salinity. Their open crystalline structure creates distinct flashes of salt rather than the dense, uniform impression of a finely ground rim. The finish is crisp, pure, and neutral enough to support citrus, agave, tomato, and other cocktail flavors without introducing additional seasoning.

Producer’s Background:

Lawrence Floyd Batterton began developing cocktail bitters for friends, family, and bartenders in 2013 before launching King Floyd’s Bar Provisions in the San Francisco Bay Area in 2017. The small producer subsequently expanded its range to include cocktail syrups, rim salts, flavored sugars, and savory bar snacks. Its hands-on production philosophy and vintage Barbary Coast-inspired presentation reflect a continuing focus on distinctive ingredients for the modern bar.

Serving Suggestions:

Moisten the outer rim of a glass with fresh lime, lemon, or simple syrup, then gently press it into the salt without twisting to preserve the delicate flakes. Use a full rim for pronounced salinity or a half rim to give the drinker greater control. Particularly well suited to Margaritas, Palomas, Bloody Marys, Bloody Marias, Micheladas, and other cocktails that benefit from a clean saline accent. It may also be used as a finishing salt for seafood, roasted vegetables, fresh fruit, chocolate, caramel, or baked goods.
