Sockeye smoked salmon Cook Inlet
The sockeye salmon is an anadromous fish, this means that in summertime, it swims from the sea up the stream in the river to lay its eggs. That’s hard work, so before the trip, the fish fills its belly with plankton and little shrimps, that’s where it gets its gorgeous deep red color from. And because the fish is caught at its fattiest - and packed with flavor!

Origin
This sockeye salmon is from Kasilof, a village in the American state of Alaska on the coast of the Cook Inlet. Not many people live here, the population of the village is about 500-600 people, the rough and rich nature is breathtaking.

Fish with a story
Our smoked sockeye salmon is caught by the Chase Family, along with other local families. Salmon fisherman Brian is far from tired by the product: he loves grilling the salmon outdoors on an open flame. ‘Pure enjoyment’ he calls it.

Fishing Method
The Chase Family fishes with floating gillnets that they layout in the morning with open fishing boats and they use the floaters to create a wall. When the salmon swims against those little walls, they retract the nets.
