So, salt that was produce here rich of contains minerals and vitamins. The process too long, from taking water in the sea until becoming salt is about 2 to 3 days in it's processing. The process also different than the other places like Kusamba in Klungkung Regency or Guris in Buleleng Regency, even in Madura island in east Java. The process is very unique.
