The legend behind the label

Captain Longstache's
lost treasure

Back in the early 1700s, Captain William Longstache seized not gold from a captured ship — but a locked leather chest. Inside: a book of seasoning formulas unlike anything the world had tasted.

Knowing others would hunt it down, Longstache hid the chest on the coast of North Carolina — then was lost at sea in a fierce hurricane. The book sat buried for three hundred years.

In 2011, a hiker in coastal NC found the chest. Mixed the formulas. Tasted something extraordinary. Shipwrecked Seasonings was born.
