Aoraki Salmon New Flavours

The artisan smokers at Aoraki Salmon, have just released two delicious new flavours of hot smoked salmon.

The artisan smokers at Aoraki Salmon take their jobs very seriously indeed. Given their salmon thrive so beautifully in the fast, glacial ice-cold waters that flow from Aoraki/Mt Cook – their main aim is to work with those superb natural flavours, balancing the smoking process to produce a product with just the right taste, texture and freshness to surprise and delight.

The rugged remoteness of their environment means that the Aoraki team are always problem solving and coming up with new ways of doing things, a willingness to experiment reflected in the release of two delicious new flavours of hot smoked salmon; Wholegrain mustard, balanced by smooth Mānuka honey, and Cracked black pepper, complemented with a hint of vanilla. The new flavour duos have been carefully selected to enhance the natural lightness of their salmon, without overwhelming it.
