Three Kings Hot Salt by Firecracker Farm is a small-batch, coarse salt that's infused with plenty of fiery flavors for those who can take the heat. This flavorfully infused coarse salt is packed with the spicy essence of three hot peppers: Ghost, Trinidad Scorpion and Carolina Reaper.

In terms of taste, the hot salt is described as having a "savory, moderate heat that builds as each of the Three Kings (Ghost, Reaper, and Scorpion) peppers traverse the palette." Unlike most hot sauces, this salt enhances the flavors of a dish without overpowering ingredients or masking the subtler ones.

The coarse salt is packaged into a premium glass and laser-etched stainless steel grinder and it's presented within a box with a magnetic closure that makes it perfect for gifting.
