Details
“A soft, dusty kaolin crunch that melts into a silky, comforting glide.”
West African Pink and White Kaolin is Nigerian clay made from a carefully selected kaolin blend (current batch mostly light pink). It has a medium, dusty crunch, with medium-firm chunks that break easily before melting into a smooth, gummy, almost silky consistency and no grit. Expect dusty kaolin earthiness, basement-like soil notes, fresh rainy petrichor and subtle forest or woody undertones, followed by a faint tang at the finish.
