The Ocean Umami Duo

Three ingredients. One obsession: depth of flavour.

Umami isn't a trend — it's the oldest flavour principle in the kitchen. This bundle pairs two of the most powerful umami tools from the waters of Vancouver Island, each one built to make everything around it taste more like itself.

Old Habits Artisanal Fish Sauce — 5 Year Aged (200ml) is the result of a 2,000-year-old tradition, slowed down and done properly. Spring-caught herring with roe, fermented with nothing but Vancouver Island Sea Salt, and aged for five years until the flavour reaches a clean, deep, mineral-rich umami that table condiments can't touch. A few drops into a sauce, soup, marinade, or dressing and you'll wonder how you cooked without it.

Kelp Sea Salt Flakes (75g) bring that same oceanic depth to the finish. Hand-harvested pyramid flakes blended with Pacific kelp — the delicate crunch of our signature finishing salt with a subtle, savoury whisper of the sea. Perfect on seafood, eggs, avocado, roasted vegetables, or anywhere you want the ocean to show up at the table.

Both products are made with Vancouver Island Sea Salt. Both are all-natural, additive-free, and built on the same principle: the best flavour comes from the best ingredients, handled with patience.

Cook with depth. Finish with the sea.
