Basilceum Greque is a botanical finishing salt built on Icelandic flake sea salt and wild harvested Greek basil. The flakes are produced in the Westfjords using geothermal energy, giving a clean mineral crunch suited to plating. Greek basil (Ocimum basilicum) offers a sweet, clove like and anise lift driven by linalool and eugenol.
Format: coarse flakes with fine cut basil for visible texture and even dispersion. Use as a finishing salt on tomatoes and mozzarella, pasta, grilled chicken or fish, roasted vegetables, eggs, and as an olive oil bread dipper; also suits focaccia and salads. Add at plating to preserve herb aroma and flake integrity.
Clean label. No anti caking agents. Storage: cool, dry place.

Inspired By
Santorini
Santorini, where white stone meets blue sea, inspires this blend. Wild basil grows on the island’s sunlit slopes, its fragrance lifted by the Aegean breeze. Paired with Icelandic sea salt, it captures that meeting of volcanic earth and pure ocean clarity: green, bright, and mineral, like the island itself.

ICELANDIC SEA SALT
Harvested through a geothermal process first tried in 1753, Icelandic Sea Salt is formed as Arctic seawater is slowly evaporated using natural hot springs. The result is a crisp, clean flake with remarkable mineral clarity. Sustainable, additive-free, and award-winning, it carries the taste of pure ocean with no environmental footprint.
WILD HARVESTED GREEK BASIL
Wild-harvested Greek basil is one of the most aromatic basils in the world, gathered by hand from mountain slopes where it grows untamed. Its leaves carry a sweet, herbal fragrance touched with anise and mint. Compared to common basil, it is stronger in both aroma and flavor, giving a concentrated green lift that lingers.
You might be wondering
What makes Greek basil different?
Wild Greek basil is naturally more aromatic, with a stronger herbal body and notes of anise and mint. Hand-harvested from mountain slopes, it has a depth that cultivated basil rarely matches.
How does the basil interact with Icelandic sea salt?
The clean mineral flakes of Icelandic salt carry the basil’s volatile oils, releasing fragrance as the crystals dissolve. The result is a bright, herbal lift grounded by pure ocean clarity.
What dishes pair best with this salt?
It shines on tomatoes, mozzarella, fresh salads, roasted vegetables, fish, and Mediterranean breads. A pinch at the table recreates the taste of summer fields by the sea.
Will the basil lose its aroma in the salt?
No. The basil is dried and gently crumbled to preserve its essential oils. Combined with low-moisture Icelandic flakes, the herbal character remains vivid and stable.
