With its pale flesh, buttery texture and intense smoky flavour, this is a truly exemplary organic smoked salmon from the Shetland Isles. Winner of 'Best Fish' and 'Supreme Champion' awards at the Food & Drink Expo 2006, the salmon is naturally preserved by being smoked for two days and two nights in old brick kilns over oak log fires, which gives it a faintly fruity and wonderfully smoky flavour. It contains no chemicals or artificial colourings whatsoever - this is why the flesh has such a pale colour. This salmon is simply delicious eaten on buttered rye bread, with a squeeze of fresh lemon and some cracked black pepper, or, for a very decadent breakfast, serve alongside some buttery scrambled eggs, garnished with some freshly chopped flat leaf parsley.
The Inverawe Smokehouse is a small, independent family business owned by Robert and Rosie Campbell-Preston, who have been smoking fish on the banks of the River Awe in the Argyll hills since 1977. They only source their salmon from small RSPCA-approved independent organic farms that adhere to the highest fish husbandry practices, where the fish swim in fast-flowing currents to keep them healthy and lean. Most mass-produced smoked salmon is smoked for just a few hours in new-style kilns; at Inverawe, the fish is slowly smoked the traditional way for 48 hours in old brick kilns over oak log fires, which results in fish with a delicate texture and full-bodied flavour. Each side is checked by hand before getting the seal of approval from the fish smoker. Even the Queen loves Inverawe - she granted the smokery Her Majesty The Queen's Royal Warrant in 2002.
