Ullapool Smokehouse has been curing salmon in the far North West Highlands since Iain Boyd first started experimenting in his spare time, decades before he opened the smokehouse itself around 2004. A lifelong fisherman turned artisan smoker, Iain still oversees a small team producing traditional whisky-cured salmon: dry-cured in sea salt and brown sugar, then cold-smoked for 12 hours over oak whisky-barrel shavings in a brick kiln. The range runs from Heather Honey and Lime Chilli hot-smoked salmon to Bloody Mary cold-smoked trout, alongside smoked cheeses, pork and wild venison charcuterie, and a handful of gourmet pantry extras. Fish comes exclusively from Wester Ross Salmon and Loch Duart, both known for low-impact Highland farming. Nothing forced, nothing compromised, nothing rushed is the whole philosophy - and it shows in every side. Order the full range online at Farmfetch.

Ullapool Smokehouse

Ullapool is about as far as you can get from a food-industrial estate: a fishing village on Scotland's North West coast, home to one of the last small, independent smokehouses in the country. Iain Boyd spent years lobster fishing, scallop diving and mussel farming before he ever lit a smoker, perfecting his method on the side until he was ready to open Ullapool Smokehouse around 2004. Two decades on, he's still there most days, training the next generation of smokers alongside his small team.

The signature product is malt whisky-cured Scottish salmon: dry-cured in sea salt and brown sugar, then cold-smoked for 12 hours over oak shavings from spent whisky barrels in a brick kiln, before a final whisky cure is worked through. The same patient approach runs through the hot-smoked range Heather Honey, Lime Chilli & Honey and BBQ Cured salmon, plus Heather Honey and Bloody Mary smoked trout - all made from fish supplied exclusively by Wester Ross Salmon and Loch Duart, two of the Highlands' most respected low-impact farms.

Beyond the salmon, the smokehouse has quietly built out a wider larder: smoked cheeses including a creamy cheddar truckle and smoked feta, pork and wild venison salami and chorizo, and a run of gourmet honey, garlic and sauces alongside curated gift packs for anyone who wants to try a bit of everything.

Nothing forced, nothing compromised, nothing rushed - that's been the rule at Ullapool Smokehouse since day one. Order the full range online at Farmfetch for easy UK delivery.
