Why This Salmon Is Different

Not all salmon portions are created equal.

For this product, Nordic Catch selects only the most beautifully marbled pieces, typically from the center and belly sections of the fillet—the parts prized by sushi chefs for their balance of fat and texture.

These portions are:

  • Skinless for easy slicing
  • Richly marbled
  • Uniformly cut for sashimi
  • Hand-selected from premium Icelandic salmon

The result is a piece that behaves more like a sushi bar salmon loin than a standard salmon portion.


Premium Icelandic Salmon

Our salmon comes from Iceland’s cold North Atlantic waters, where strong currents and pristine conditions produce fish known for:

  • Clean, refined flavor
  • Balanced fat structure
  • Firm yet silky texture
  • Consistent quality

Nordic Catch remains one of the only online seafood retailers specializing in Icelandic seafood, offering salmon sourced from one of the world’s most respected aquaculture regions.


What Is a Salmon Loin?

The loin is the most desirable section of the salmon fillet.

It offers:

  • the best balance of fat and lean
  • clean slicing for sashimi
  • consistent texture
  • superior presentation

Sushi chefs prefer the loin for sashimi and nigiri because it produces perfect slices with smooth mouthfeel and rich flavor.


Flavor & Texture

Expect a salmon experience similar to what you would find at a high-end sushi bar.

Flavor profile:

  • Buttery richness
  • Clean ocean freshness
  • Balanced natural fat
  • Silky texture when sliced

The marbling in these pieces creates the melt-in-your-mouth quality that sushi lovers seek.


Ideal For

  • Sashimi
  • Sushi rolls
  • Nigiri
  • Poke bowls
  • Salmon crudo
  • Tartare

Because the skin has already been removed, these portions are ready for immediate slicing and preparation.

Customer photo review of Salmon, Sushi Grade from Iceland (5.5oz portion)

Everything was perfect and delicious! From the ease of ordering and selecting my preferred shipping date to contacting customer service to move the delivery up by a day the week of, the entire experience was seamless and incredibly accommodating. The fish itself was excellent quality and was the perfect addition to a sushi cake I made for my husband, which he specifically requested for his birthday! Since we don’t have access to sushi-grade fish locally, I was so happy to come across Nordic Catch. I will definitely be a repeat customer!

Another delivery from Nordic Catch! One thing we really appreciate is how well everything is packaged.

Great fish. Arrived as requested on Thursday with plenty of dry ice. Thawed and prepared for 48 hr salt plus other special ingredients cure Monday. Cold smoked Thursday 7.5 hours. So the Icelandic salmon is my first from that region. It is oily relative so a Chlian salmon but tastes very good. With my guests we will refine that evaluation but I am certain it will be a hit

Review: Fresh and Delicious Salmon Poké with Nordic Catch We love using Nordic Catch salmon to make fresh, flavorful salmon poké at home.

These simple yet vibrant ingredients come together beautifully for a refreshing, restaurant-quality meal.

Wow! This was great. Until I found you guys, we were ordering salmon from Alaska and trimming everything ourselves. What a PITA and based on what we were able to get, there was a lot of waste after trimming. So glad to have found your site. You are now our go to site for Salmon... Thanks, Eric

Salmon Loin, Skinless Sashimi Ready (Bulk Case)

The salmon had a very nice texture and great flavor for my sushi. The packaging was perfect. All the fish I ordered was frozen solid still when it arrived and arrived Super fast. I love the blocks of tuna like you see in a sushi restaurant.

Salmon, Sushi Grade from Iceland (5.5oz portion)

I have ordered salmon sashimi from many suppliers regularly (including hokkaido uni shop and even weee) and they've never had a fishy odor. The batch of salmon I got from Nordic Catch (first time ordering from here) REEKED of a strong strong fishy odor that as soon as I took it out of the bag, I felt sick. I had to cook it because it was too fishy to eat raw. Disappointment.
