Choose options
Introducing premium sablefish (also known as black cod) caught in the beautiful waters of Alaska. Each pack contains 5 slices of 100g fillets. These sablefish have grown naturally by freely swimming in the deep, cold waters of Alaska, accumulating rich fat that imparts a sweet taste and white velvety flaky texture, characteristic of fish raised in cold pristine waters. Typically used in ryokans, upscale Japanese restaurants, and luxury hotels, this is no ordinary fish you can find in the supermarket. Enjoy the quality of a high-end restaurant in the comfort of your home. These fillets are pre-cut for a single serving, making them convenient to use directly after thawing. Whether simply grilled with salt or used in hot pots, sautés, or frying, you can enjoy a wide range of dishes according to your preference. Sablefish is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, making it a high-quality source of protein.
✔ Sourced from a sustainable fishery that's been certified as Responsibly Managed by the United Nation's Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) strict international guidelines.
✔ The waters where the fish inhabit are subject to strict drainage regulations, ensuring conservation to prevent marine pollution such as heavy metal and antibiotic drug contamination.
✔ The waters have been strictly tested and have no high concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons, PCBs, or pesticides.
✔ Longline fishing is employed to prevent overfishing and bycatch, while also reducing damage such as congestion and splitting.

Explore the extensive fishing grounds along Alaska's coast, including the Bering Sea, Aleutian Islands, and Gulf of Alaska. Fed by nutrients from the state's expansive forests covering 32% of its land and stimulated by upwelling currents triggering abundant plant-based plankton, this region fosters a rich ecosystem. Seafood from these waters is renowned for its firm texture, lack of fishy odor, and a flavorful, natural taste.
In Alaska, fishing practices prioritize the protection of marine resources and the ocean environment. Strict discharge regulations prevent marine pollution, and aquaculture using antibiotics in feed is strictly prohibited. Scientific research and careful catch management ensure the sustainability of wild populations in Alaska's waters. This commitment to ecosystem preservation extends beyond fishermen to scientists, law enforcement, local communities, and families, underscoring the importance of responsible practices.
