Beechwood, Truffle & Wine: Meet N/UM’s new Gourmet seasoning salts collections.

Salt is the simplest ingredient in the kitchen, but at n/um, we believe it should never be ordinary. Each of our gourmet salts is crafted with heritage, storytelling, and flavor at its core. Inspired by Africa’s landscapes, botanicals, and traditions.

This season, we are proud to introduce five new artisanal blends that showcase the extraordinary depth of African terroir: two bold Smoked & Truffle salts, and three elegant Wine-Infused & Herb salts.

Smoked & Truffle: Depth Meets Decadence

Our signature African Beechwood Smoked Salt has become a favorite for its rich, fire-kissed flavor. Now, we’ve taken it further with the earthy luxury of truffle and the distinctive notes of rooibos.

  • Smoked & Truffle Salt — A gourmet truffle sea salt infused with natural smoke for an indulgent touch that elevates everything from risotto to roasted potatoes.
  • Smoked & Truffle & Rooibos Salt — Adding South Africa’s iconic rooibos to smoked truffle creates a layered, earthy blend that’s as bold as it is refined.

These are the salts that make even a simple plate of fries taste like fine dining.

Wine-Infused & Herb: A Taste of the Vineyard

Wine and herbs have always had a place at the table, and with our new collection, they now live inside the salt jar. Infused with African-grown grapes and botanicals, these blends deliver sophistication with every pinch.

  • Red Wine Blend & Buchu Salt — A fragrant pairing of red wine and buchu, a South African herb with bright, minty undertones. Perfect for lamb, roasted vegetables, or a bold cheese board.
  • Shiraz & Rooibos Salt — Deep Shiraz notes meet the subtle sweetness of rooibos, creating a balanced seasoning ideal for grilled meats, pasta sauces, and even dark chocolate desserts.
  • Merlot & Hibiscus Salt — Fruity Merlot infused with floral hibiscus makes this salt a striking finish for salads, seafood, and cocktails.

These aren’t just salts — they’re gourmet finishing touches that invite you to cook like a chef at home.

Why n/um?

Each n/um blend is curated by our in-house chef, Kudzai, and presented in our signature premium glass jars with acacia lids: a combination of design, sustainability, and culinary craft. We’re not just creating seasonings; we’re telling stories of Africa through food.

With these five new salts, we invite you to experience the elegance of truffle, the richness of wine, and the magic of African botanicals in your everyday cooking.
