Organic Irish Sea Farmed Trout
Curraun Blue, the only organically sea farmed trout in Ireland, is operated by a father and son team in Clew Bay, County Mayo, on the west coast of Ireland.
The warm waters in Clew Bay attract dolphins that follow the Gulf Stream and rich food sources in crystal clear waters. The scenery from Clew Bay is stunning and ever changing with the light from the Connemara skies. Its beautiful evening sunsets over the Atlantic Ocean will leave lasting memories.
Curraun Blue, while complying with most European Organic farming standards, has managed to retain its traditional farming methods, including:
- A respect for the environment,
- A diet using natural or organic ingredients
- Respecting very low stocking densities,
- Allowing a longer time at sea than for a conventional farm.
Why such a unique product?
Curraun blue is the oldest sea-based trout farm in Ireland. It
benefits from the shelter from nearby Achill Island, which helps
protect the fish against full exposure to the Atlantic Ocean.
• This wild and natural environment provides the perfect site to
grow and nurture the trout.
• Curraun Blue is the only company worldwide to produce seareared irish organic trout
trout that comply with the EU Organic standards and
carry EU certification.
• Sea-reared trout have a unique flavour and can be served in a
similar way to salmon.
• Curraun Blue trout have a subtle nut-like flavour and are
excellent source of omega-3.
• The taste of the trout is inimitable: it shines in its own right, and
is also an excellent product when smoked.
