Think about it, Iceland is far north on the map, surrounded by the extremely cold Arctic Ocean. This ocean is constantly fed by untouched, melted glacier water that renews every winter.

Couple that with an “all-in all-out” farming technique, meaning all farm sites fallow for months between harvesting, leaving a crystal clear, newly replenished site for the next farm cycle.

Parasites and diseases that would normally be killed off by freezing your fish, cannot thrive in these waters.

This is why no fish farm in Iceland ever uses antibiotics and there is no need to freeze the fish before enjoying it as sashimi!
