The ÍSLAND FISKUR Arctic Char offers outstanding quality rarely found in the European market. It is sourced from the modern land-based aquaculture of Fiskeldið Haukamýri in Húsavík, a traditional Icelandic family business that has stood for sustainable premium aquaculture for over 20 years. Haukamýri utilises high-purity spring water systems, controlled temperature management, and particularly gentle rearing conditions. The result is a fish that grows in absolutely clean, cold water, developing an exceptionally clear flesh structure and excellent sensory properties. The char is harvested at a size of 1-1.5 kg and is characterised by firm, juicy, light pink-orange flesh. Its taste is mild, elegant, and yet full of character – an ideal product for discerning fish counters, upscale gastronomy, and professional processing. After harvesting, the fish is cleaned, chilled, and carefully prepared on the same day. Immediately after, the product is flown directly to Germany via Keflavík. Within 48 hours, the product reaches the customer – fresher and sensorially clearer than the usual market standard. ÍSLAND FISKUR Arctic Char whole fish is not ordinary merchandise – it is genuine Icelandic top quality: sustainably farmed, expertly hand-processed, and with a freshness that far exceeds professional standards.
