3, 4 & 5 years ago, these fish began their lives as deposited eggs in the gravel of glacial fed Kimsquit & Bella Coola Rivers, deep within the Coast Mountains of British Columbia.
After a challenging life in the North Pacific, the homeward bound journey finds the salmon navigating the inlets & avoiding Orcas to return to their home stream. It is the incredible productivity of these salmon that allows our business to take a small portion each year for your benefit.
We handle the fish with great respect & care. Within minutes of it being caught, it is cleaned & packed in glacial cold ice. The fish is brined following a recipe perfected by friends who have had years of experience. It is then smoked using west coast red alder at a controlled temperature & time, ensuring a high quality product.
We are a family run business, living off a sustainable resource in a rugged, beautiful part of British Columbia. Enjoy eating this healthy product from the cold inlets of the Central Coast. Please come & visit us some day.
