Copper River Sockeye Smoked Salmon ~ 1.5 Lb, Wild Caught Smoked Salmon Filet
Three hundreds miles of rugged unrelenting river requires Copper River Salmon to store remarkable amounts of nutrients in order to muscle their way back up the long and treacherous rapids. This provides them with the highest oil content of any Sockeye Salmon in the world, making them the highest quality and best tasting salmon available. ~~ Every summer the excitement in Alaska brews as thousands of commercial and sport fishermen travel from all over the world chasing the legendary wild Sockeye Salmon. Native to Alaska, every year millions of salmon return from the ocean to spawn in the freshwater streams where they were born. ~~ Because the Copper River is so swift, they must store extra fat and oils in order to survive the long trip. This high fat and oil content is why Copper River salmon are recognized as some of the world's best-eating salmon. ~~ Wild-caught, Copper River Salmon are bright silvery salmon with a bright red flesh, a firm texture, and a rich flavor that makes them a very delicious dining experience preferred by top seafood restaurants. ~~ No other seafood processing facility in Alaska can say that, and we display it proudly. All of our products come from Alaska and the majority of our seafood is processed in Alaska, never overseas, keeping hundreds of full-time and seasonal jobs in our local communities. ~~ Maybe it's the thrill of the catch, or the pure glacial waters our fish swim in. Maybe it's the fishermen, who have become like family over the years. Whatever it is, there's a difference in Wild Alaska Seafood that you can taste, see and feel.
