Syracuse Salt Co.
Syracuse, NY
Syracuse Salt Co. is a small-batch salt company with deep roots in Syracuse, NY, a historic industrial town affectionately known as the "Salt City" since the 18th century. The founder's connection to the region spans generations, having been born and raised amid Syracuse's distinctive geological heritage. During the extended winter season, which dominates approximately nine months of the year, visitors notice the white-covered roads surrounding Onondaga Lake—originally called "Salt Lake" in the 1600s. This characteristic whiteness often derives not from Syracuse's famous snowfall, but from the natural salt springs that line the lake's shores, creating the perfect foundation for this hand-finished, locally-sourced salt production enterprise.
