Description
Tradition Since 1981
For over 40 years, Ardtaraig has been dedicated to traditional smoking methods, producing exceptional smoked fish that reflects our heritage and craftsmanship.
Carefully Sourced Scottish Trout
Our rainbow trout is sourced from the fast-flowing waters of North West Scotland, where low stock densities and high-quality feeding ensure a naturally firm texture and excellent flavour.
Traditional Smoking, Time Honoured Craft
Unlike modern intensive smoking methods, we use traditional London brick kilns and slow smoke our trout over Oak and Beech wood. This heritage process creates a gentle, well-balanced smokiness that enhances the natural character of the fish.
Delicate Flavour, Refined Texture
The result is a beautifully succulent smoked trout with a delicate flavour, smooth texture, and a lighter, less oily finish than many modern alternatives. The gentle smoke allows the natural quality of the fish to remain at the forefront.
A Refined Alternative
A fantastic alternative to smoked salmon, our smoked rainbow trout offers a more subtle flavour profile while maintaining the same level of craftsmanship and care.

ARDTARAIG Smoked Scottish Rainbow Trout
Five sensationally delicious packages of this delicate smoked trout were delivered to our home in Cornwall on the requested day before Christmas 2025 (I even got a call from Ardtaraig to double-check the day it was needed) and I can only say they are a delightful company to deal with. Thank you and happy 2026!

Smoked trout.
This was given as a gift and the recipient (who is used to Inverawe smoked trout) raved about it! It is incredibly expensive but I do look forward to trying it myself in the future.

Trout v salmon
Having been eating quality salmon for years I thought I needed a change and discovered Ardtaraig. We tried a variety of salmon and it was fantastic, but by chance we also tried the smoked trout, and we were hooked. The quality is unlike anything else i have had. Full of flavour, great texture, brilliant colour and just fantastic to eat, so we had to have it on Christmas morning. If you’ve tried trout before try this, and I will guarantee you will buy it again. Yum Yum. The best for my tum!
