ABOUT ULLAPOOL SMOKEHOUSE
WHY ULLAPOOL SMOKEHOUSE
Ullapool Smokehouse is a small, traditional smoking business, based in the fishing village of Ullapool, in the far North West of the Scottish Highlands. Our aim is to produce the very best quality, traditionally smoked, salmon.
We use our knowledge and enthusiasm to produce smoked fish that tastes like the artisan product it should, rather than the commodity that it has become. Together we do all the work - from smoking to slicing, packing, selling and dispatching. We specialise in mail-order but also sell to a select number of quality hotels, restaurants and Fish buyers.
SMOKED FOR 12 HOURS
Before smoking, the fish is often cured with a mixture of salt and sometimes sugar or other seasonings. The curing process helps to draw out moisture from the fish, which aids in preservation.
The fish was traditionally smoked to preserve.
The process involves exposing the fish to smoke, which helps to dry and dehydrate it, making it less susceptible to spoilage.
However nowadays its more for the distinct rich flavour.

Wester Ross salmon are renown for the quality of the salmon they produce and have won countless awards worldwide, they are the best independent fish farmers in Scotland and still feed their fish by hand which causes the fish to swim harder, resulting in a fitter and less fatty, tastier fish.
