We are letting you in on some behind the scenes of our smoking process...

Oak shavings are a key ingredient to our well known and loved Burren Smoked Irish Organic Salmon.

Our refined recipe and carefully controlled smoking process allows the smell and taste of our freshly smoked salmon to ignite nostalgia for both Peter and Birgitta, the founders of the Burren Smokehouse and Burren Experiences, from their early childhood memories of fishing.

The Burren Experiences not only allow you to learn more about our unique smoking process and techniques from start to finish, but we also show you our custom-designed kiln and smoke box, an integral part to our award-winning Burren Smoked Irish Orgnaic Salmon products.
