We hand pick Atlantic salmon, which is then salted by hand in sea salt, and then carefully rope hung and smoked for three days using wood chips from Scottish whisky barrels. Hanging the salmon up, rather than smoking it laid flat, makes it more tender and flavoursome.
Every fish is then individually hand sliced. This allows each fish to be prepared making the best use of the salmon’s individual texture. It requires expertise, time and real skill to learn the art of hand slicing and we are one of the few companies to still do so.
In strictly business terms, the time and dedication lavished on each fish makes little sense. But we are proud to be produce a special smoked salmon product which belongs among the finest names in the world of refined fine foods. We do it because we love it, and we know our customers do too.
