Spanish term or phrase: con sal

I don't think this expression has an equivalent in English. It is used as a slogan on a tourism web site about a Spanish region. For example, *Pamplona - Navarra con sal*. This is the actual catchphrase for the campaign so I am afraid there is no more context than this. What I am looking for is a feel for what this expression might mean to a Spanish person so that I can come up with some ideas for a campaign slogan. Thank you.

Thanks for all your help! In the end I suggested 'with soul'. Not a translation but it sounds nice for the purpose.

salt-sprinkled Navarre

Explanation:
or "Navarre sprinkled with salt". Salt has important connotations in the collective consciousness of being vital to life so I'd keep it.

with zest

Explanation:
Using the term "Navarre--with zest" allows you to: 1) keep it short and punchy, like the original; 2) maintain a culinary reference (though it may not be necessary to do so and 3), remain true to the sense of the original, which is that Pamplona is great, like Navarre, but a little ... zestier!
