Our Traditional Oak Smoked Salmon is made from fresh superior grade fillets of salmon, dry cured on a bed of salt, without added sugar, and gently cold smoked over Welsh oak chips.
The smoked salmon is then expertly hand sliced (click here to find our video of how to slice by hand) and then vacuum sealed for freshness.
The Traditional Oak Smoked Salmon always wins an award at the Great Taste Awards and won a coveted Welsh True Taste Award.
“A gentle aroma of oak combines well with the salmon. Perky coral colour, good texture, not at all greasy. Fabulous combination of the salmon and the oak - well judged. The smoke does not bully the fish at all. A skilled hand is at work here - balanced, the salt is spot on and there is a lingering flavour” Great Taste Awards 2023 - 2 Gold Stars
If you are making canapés, try the Smoked Salmon in Canapé Shells with Greek Yoghurt and Dill Mustard Sauce served on an Oak Serving Platter.
These smaller packs of Smoked Salmon make perfect presents for those with a smaller appetite - our Little Salmon Feast Gift is the perfect gift for salmon lovers.
"Rich and indulgently buttery on the palate, it has a good structure and melts in the mouth with an elegant balance of flavour and a long and satisfying gentle smoke finish" - Great Taste Awards 2023

Although our Traditional Oak Smoked Salmon is perfect served simply with a squeeze of lemon and twist of black pepper, it is also a wonderful ingredient to cook with. Here's one of our favourite recipes -

I received ... the most delicious side of smoked salmon, sliced better than any I have ever come across before, it was so easy to serve. And the packaging was equally superb, it ensured arrival in perfect condition. Brilliant product and service, thank you.
Philip Prettejohn, February 2024
I just wanted to reach out and say that your smoked salmon is the best we have ever eaten !! It was absolutely beautiful as was the bacon. It was a real treat and we shall definitely be ordering more.
Victoria Ashton, December 2023
Having skipped breakfast, I’m ready for a tasting of the cold-smoked salmon, which is sweet, oaky and melts in the mouth.
National Geographic Magazine, December 2023
One of the UK’s best smokeries, based in Wales. It was the award-winning smoked chicken that drew us in first, closely followed by the smoked duck and fish – ingredients that are great to have on hand for impromptu salads, sandwiches & snacks of the highest order. The Taste For Two hamper (£59.75) includes award-winning oak smoked duck, salmon, chicken and cheddar, plus a jar of dill sauce (epic with smoked fish on blinis or rye bread for a quick canapé).
Delicious Magazine November 2023
The smoked salmon is cold smoked over Welsh oak chips that give it the same distinctive gentle smoking [as the Smoked Chickem], and in a world of additive enhaced smoked foods, this whole hamper is authentically smoked, utterly delicious and incredibly moreish.
Clare O'Reilly - The Independent, March 2023

It's products like this that make me proud to be Welsh. Compared with the competition, this smoked salmon is in another league with its taste and texture that can only be described as full of love. I'm a massive fan and I am eager to purchase more.
Matthew Donovan, December 2020
I just wanted to say that every single thing we've tried so far has been simply delicious. We've had the smoked chicken, the smoked salmon, the hot smoked oak roasted salmon and the smoked sea bass. All really wonderful!

The salmon was absolutely fabulous, in fact so good there was nothing left!
October 2020
Thank you for absolutely superb service especially in such difficult times. I ordered salmon on Tuesday night, not really thinking there was any chance of a delivery in time for our wedding anniversary on Saturday, but here it is - delivered first thing Thursday morning. My mouth is watering at the thought, and I know we are in for a feast on Saturday, even in lockdown with the rest of the family unable to join us. Thank you so much!
September 2020
The salmon was absolutely fabulous, in fact so good there was nothing left!

The smoked salmon is absolutely outstanding, and totally different to the supermarket fare. Even our teenagers noticed! The service is second to none, personal, charming and very efficient - most impressive, particularly in these difficult times.
G Magnay, July 2020
Thank you so much for pulling the stops out and getting all that lovely smoked salmon to us tout suite.
June 2020
An excellent order, delivered as agreed, the smoked salmon was delicious and fresh and the smoked ham wonderful... you just can't get this quality in the shops!
June 2020
Very neat and fresh-looking salmon slices. A lightly smoked and clean aroma. A firm flesh that melted in the mouth, so creamy! A good level of smoke, not overpowering, allowing all the natural fish flavour to come through.
Great Taste Awards, 2020
Generous slices of smoked salmon with gentle smoke on the nose. The salmon just melts in the mouth - buttery, sweet and tasty flesh with gentle back notes of smoked oak. You could eat this just on its own - nothing else needed - just deliciously tasty and perfectly balanced.
Great Taste Awards, 2020
Deep salmon pink with a beautiful glossy texture. Complex and pungent smoky aromatics on the nose of heather honey sweetness. Rich and indulgently buttery on the palate, it has a good structure and melts in the mouth with an elegant balance of flavour and a long and satisfying gentle smoke finish. Refined and sophisticated flavours par excellence.
Great Taste Awards, 2020
Delicious firm-textured fish with a balanced saltiness and a delicate hint of smoke.
Great Taste Awards, September 2017
The smoked salmon was wonderful..again the texture was so much better than other smoked salmon I have tried, and the taste was excellent.
Lisa Coleridge, April 2018
Great texture and not at all oily. The curing and smoking let the salmon do the talking
