Arctic Char is a Salmonid and is found in the Arctic Ocean throughout the northernmost countries, particularly in the Canadian Arctic. It is similar to salmon or trout, but has a milder, more delicate flavour.

​All of our Arctic Char is wild caught by the Inuit fishermen of Pangnirtung & Qikiqtarjuaq, just off the coast of Baffin Island, in Nunavut. Our fish is flash frozen during the winter harvest and within six hours during the summer harvest and remain frozen until purchased or smoked. 

Wild Caught on Baffin Island. Always Wild. Always caught in the most pristine waters in the world.

Baffin Island, Nunavut is the largest island in Canada and the fifth largest island in the world. Despite the size, the 8 hamlets on the Island have a total population of 14,355, 85% of whom are Inuit, with the communities of Qikiqtarjuaq and Pangnirtung reaching 520 and 1,550 respectively.

Due to the inaccessibility of the island, the waters surrounding Baffin Island are some of the cleanest waters in the world. The population is a relatively low human impact on the island which leaves our fish with an extremely low level of contaminants.
