Scottish Salmon
Scottish Salmon is a premium farmed Atlantic salmon that is sustainably raised off the coast of Scotland. The frigid waters and strong currents produce salmon that are both strong and high in fat-content. Scottish Salmon is one of the more mild flavored salmon on the market. The higher-fat content of these fish lend to a buttery texture mouth-feel. The fish’s feed is parasite-free making it safe for raw consumption.
