What's in the box

Our Smoked herring delivers a robust, savory flavor with a rich dose of umami and smoke. 

While early American food culture once celebrated the herring, with dishes like the Skully Jo Fish Bake originating from seafood ports such as Gloucester, we recommend any throwback recipes drawing flavor inspiration from other herring-worshipping countries.

In the UK, smoked herring (or kippers) are often enjoyed for breakfast. As is the custom in northern Europe, smoked herring is delicious when paired with potatoes or with a nice lager or pale ale at the start of the day, à la Ernest Hemingway.

In a nutshell

Smoked alaska herring, loaded with smoke, garlic, and attitude. supermarket herring are soggy pretenders—this is alaska’s wild, briny heavyweight, built for real appetites.

Caught Wild. Canned Wild. Made With Care In Alaska.

Our herring is seine-caught in the cold waters of Southeast Alaska, processed at community-based processors in coastal Alaska, then canned fresh in Klawock—our tiny town at the edge of the Pacific.

Then we do something extra:

We smoke it over natural hardwood, giving this little fish big character. Every tin is small-batch, slow-pressure cooked to preserve herring’s rich oils and firm, savory bite. Briny, smoky, and packed with flavor, it’s Alaska’s oldest-school staple, ready to eat straight or stand bold in any dish.
