Guérande sea salt sets the mineral base. PGI standards confirm hand-harvesting, unwashed crystals, and no additives. Moist granules give clean salinity and a gentle crunch at the table. Built for finishing.
Turkish Aleppo pepper adds sun-dried tomato, light fruit, and soft acidity with moderate heat. Carolina Reaper supplies a precise, extreme burn. Reaper is among the world’s hottest chilies; Pepper X holds the current record. The duet reads bright-fruity up front, then deep, lingering fire.
Applications: grilled steak and lamb, roast potatoes and corn, fried or soft-scrambled eggs, charred greens, ramen, popcorn, and chili. Best used sparingly to finish plates for texture plus heat. The format matches the market language for spicy finishing salts.
More about the Carolina Reaper:
Bred by Ed “Smokin’ Ed” Currie of PuckerButt Pepper Company in South Carolina. Recognized by Guinness in 2013 with an average heat just over 1.56–1.64 million Scoville Heat Units. Pepper X replaced it as record holder in October 2023, but Reaper remains an extreme-heat “superhot.”
Character: a brief sweet, fruity impression. Then a long, rising burn. Tasting notes reported by produce references include tropical fruit, red apple, peach, cinnamon or chocolate, with a hard-lingering finish.
Use note in this salt: the Reaper fraction is kept low so the profile reads flavorful first, then intense. It is present to deliver a precise kick, not a stunt.

Magma
This blend takes its force from the earth’s molten core. Guérande sea salt recalls mineral stone shaped by tide and time. Aleppo chili rises with a slow, glowing warmth, while Carolina Reaper erupts like magma, searing and absolute. A salt forged in fire and depth, created for those who seek intensity at the very edge.

TURKISH ALEPPO + CAROLINA REAPER
A union of fruit-rich Aleppo chili and the searing fire of Carolina Reaper. Aleppo brings gentle, sun-dried warmth with notes of cumin and raisin, while the Reaper delivers uncompromising intensity. Together they form a layered heat: bright, smoky, and extreme.
