Full product description

Named 'Best Sushi Grade Seafood' in the country by Food Network!

Our Fresh Sushi-Grade Salmon Sashimi features premium Icelandic Atlantic salmon, sourced from some of the cleanest, coldest waters in the world. Iceland’s strong currents and low water temperatures naturally produce salmon with a clean flavor, vibrant color, and refined fat structure—qualities essential for exceptional raw preparation.

Each portion is carefully selected and processed to sashimi standards, making it safe and ideal for eating raw. The result is a smooth, buttery mouthfeel with a mild, slightly sweet finish, prized by sushi chefs and home cooks alike.

This is not commodity salmon. Unlike mass-market options, our Icelandic salmon is chosen specifically for freshness, texture, and raw performance, delivering consistency you’d expect from top sushi restaurants.

Whether you’re slicing thick cuts for sashimi, shaping nigiri, or building a pristine poke bowl, this salmon delivers a clean, elevated experience every time.


Why Icelandic Salmon?

Icelandic salmon is widely respected for its purity and quality. The cold Nordic waters, strict aquaculture standards, and constant ocean movement result in salmon that is:

Exceptionally clean-tasting

Firm yet buttery in texture

Ideal for sashimi and sushi

Free from muddy or overly fishy flavors

Very few companies offer true Icelandic salmon portions delivered directly to your home. This is a cornerstone of what makes Nordic Catch different.

What does sushi-grade mean?

“Sushi-grade” is an industry term indicating fish selected and processed for safe raw consumption, focusing on freshness, handling, and quality.

Why Icelandic salmon?

Can I use this for sushi rolls or poke?

Absolutely. This salmon is ideal for sashimi, nigiri, rolls, poke bowls, crudo, and tartare.
