I had heard of Maldon flakes before but I figured that salt is salt so what is the big deal?  The big deal is that this takes salt to the highest possible level, so light and flakey that it plays on your tongue and greatly enhances the food that it is used on.  Just remember that this is a finishing salt so don't waste it by cooking with it-- use it after the food has been plated.  I actually keep a small container of it on the dinner table so that it is always right there.  BEST. SALT. EVER!
