This CRYSTAL spice shaker proves itself to be handy in all situations. Whether at home, holiday home or picnic. The head of the shaker can be easily removed for coarser herbs. The seal prevents valuable essential oils of the herbs from escaping and salt from clumping. Traditional Swiss precision handcraft.

The Swiss Alpine Salt Shaker is filled with Alpine salt from Sel de Bex, a Swiss company, which is looking back to a 400 years old tradition. When the sea retreated from Switzerland some two hundred milliion years ago, it left behind a valuable gift: salt. Sealed in the rock when the Alps were formed, the seams of salt at Bex have retained their unrivalled original purity. Extracted from this rocky mantel and dissolved by spring water from our glaciers, Sel des Alpes has retained its mineral richness. (Source www.selbex.com/en/)

Peppercorns, and the ground pepper, may be described simply as pepper, or more precisely as black pepper, green pepper and white pepper. The spiciness of black pepper is due to the chemical piperine, not to be confused with the capsaicin that gives fleshy peppers theirs. Dried ground pepper has been used since antiquity for both its flavour and as a traditional medicine. (Source en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_pepper)

Sichuan pepper, also known as Chinese coriander and Japanese pepper or aniseed pepper, is a commonly used spice in Chinese, Tibetan, Nepali, and Indian cuisine and belongs in the rue or citrus family. Sichuan pepper's unique aroma and flavour is not hot. Instead, it has slight lemony overtones and creates a tingly numbness in the mouth caused by its 3% of hydroxy alpha sanshool) that sets the stage for hot spices.
