Smoked Salmon
Two-pounds Smoked Salmon In-House
Gently hot-smoked, the way our grandfather taught us, the salmon takes on a lightly caramelized exterior as it slowly cures, yet it's still rich and moist inside, with a luxurious, meaty flake. Just a hint of our sweet herbal marinade comes through. A labor of love, made with sustainably-farmed Atlantic salmon. Ready to serve in one-pound fillet portions.

Atlantic Salmon
(Salmo salar)
Wild Atlantic salmon's habitat was severely threatened by industrialization. Commercial fishing of Atlantic salmon has long been prohibited. Maintaining a consistent supply of good, sustainably-farmed salmon is an ongoing project for us.
- Wild salmon gets its characteristic orange-pink color from carotenoids in the crustaceans it eats. Farmed versions are fed carotene-rich vitamins instead.
- After meeting our top priorities in selecting farmed salmon––clean flavor and firm texture––we look for low feed-to-fish ratios. We believe this is the key to sustainable fish farming.
- Salmon are piscivores. While a partially plant-based diet may be a good thing for farmed salmon, we avoid farms that use feed containing meat byproducts and unnecessary antibiotics and hormones.
- Fishwatch––the National Marine Fisheries Sustainability report––describes the strict prohibition on fishing wild Atlantic salmon.
