South Korean bamboo salt master Choi Dong-soon has broken new ground in traditional bamboo salt making by introducing the world's first 5,000-degree high-temperature Hwangsong bamboo salt. 

The achievement is considered an artistic revolution in salt making, combining the perfect blend of bamboo and sea salt with innovative technology to contribute to human health.

Tradition meets science, 5,000-degree Hwangsong Bamboo Salt

Master Choi fuses the essence of bamboo salt-making tradition with modern technology to create 5,000-degree Hwangsong bamboo salt, which has more potency and mineral content than the existing 3,000-degree bamboo salt. 

This high-temperature treatment removes impurities and optimizes the composition of bamboo and salt, resulting in a product that satisfies both health and taste.

Key Features
Deep, rich flavor, unmatched by conventional products.
Enhanced potency, maximizing antioxidant effect and mineral content.
Manufacturing innovation, fusion of tradition and modern technology through high-temperature burners.

“Hwangsong bamboo salt is the fruit of harmony between nature and humans, and it can be said to be the last gift from God,” said Choi Dong-soon, who hopes that this achievement will raise the global status of bamboo salt.

The secret to 5,000-degree production, high-temperature burner technology
The key to the production of Hwangsong bamboo salt is an innovative high-temperature burner. The burner can raise the temperature in the furnace to 5,000 degrees in a short time, allowing for complete melting of the bamboo and salt. 

It is a breakthrough technology that can stably produce high-quality bamboo salt through impurity removal and complete combustion.

In particular, it utilizes rosin as a fuel to transfer heat more efficiently than conventional methods, and secures precise temperature control through compressed air. 

This technology is an innovative approach that modernizes the traditional bamboo salt manufacturing process and increases both quality and productivity.

A new standard for healthy bamboo salt
The 5,000-degree Hwangsong bamboo salt maximizes the traditional benefits of bamboo salt, such as anti-cancer, antibacterial, and detoxification, while enriching the minerals and flavor to satisfy both health and taste. It is expected to be a new alternative for modern people's health and well-being and is likely to receive a warm response in markets around the world.
