The smoked salmon and black cod were truly amazing.
Tender. Delicious. Smokey. Melt in your mouth. Mouth watering. My mouth is watering now just thinking about it. In dip, it is just as good. Smoked salmon dip is something everyone should eat. You could eat this stuff like candy all day long. Completely worth it and it's amazing.

This is REAL smoked salmon, not the factory slop you find at the store.
If you grew up in a fishing family you miss the real deal, and this is the real deal. I bought a case thinking I would share some as gifts and when it arrived I instantly changed my mind ... these are all for me! I'll have to get more for gifts. The salmon is perfectly smoked and sweetened - the cod is unbelievably tender. It all melts in my mouth! If you can tear a piece from my hands long enough to prepare a meal, it makes a decadent smoked salmon chowder; a fragrant smoked salmon spread; amazing topping for salmon pizza; and just a little salmon with cheese is a wonderful afternoon lunch. You can also build an absolutely killer charcuterie board. We freeze the salmon skins and save them as little treats for our dogs who wait worshipfully for their royal snack. The cod skin is delicate and good to eat. Shipping was beautiful and secure and the fish was nice and cold upon arrival. Looking forward to being a repeat, lifelong customer.

Love love love Ketchikan Sam’s smoked fish!
The smoked black cod is SOOO good, with a perfect balance of salt and sweet. The salmon is a beautiful addition to any charcuterie board. I sent a box to friends in California and they received it after 1 business day!

Arrived in California in fine shape, an impressive quantified of lovely, lean smoked salmon and black cod.
I’d order again and it was a gift to me from a Ketchikan native. Very happy with it.

Four wild Alaskan smoked seafood favorites in one box:

  • Red Gold Smoked Sockeye Salmon
  • Smoked Summer King Salmon
  • Black Gold Smoked Black Cod
  • Keta Kandy Smoked Chum Salmon

Whether you're building a charcuterie board, sending a taste of Alaska as a gift, or stocking the freezer, our Smoked Seafood Sampler gives you four distinctly different flavors of wild Alaska seafood in convenient vacuum-sealed portions.

What’s in the Box?

Red Gold Smoked Sockeye Salmon

Bold, vibrant, and beautifully flaky.

Wild Alaskan sockeye is prized for its naturally deep red color, firm texture, and rich flavor. Traditionally smoked, it is excellent on crackers, bagels, salads, charcuterie boards, or enjoyed straight from the pack.

Smoked King Salmon

Rich, tender, and unmistakably Alaskan.

King salmon has a naturally higher oil content that gives it a buttery texture and full flavor. Smoking brings out that richness while preserving the tender, flaky character that makes king salmon one of Alaska’s most prized fish.

Black Gold Smoked Black Cod

Silky, buttery, and melt-in-your-mouth tender.

Also known as sablefish or butterfish, black cod has an exceptionally high natural oil content. That makes it beautifully suited for smoking, producing a delicate, savory flavor and luxurious texture.

Keta Kandy Smoked Keta Salmon

Clean, savory, and wonderfully satisfying.

Keta, also known as chum salmon, has firm coral-colored meat and a clean flavor that transforms beautifully during smoking.

Keta is also one of Southeast Alaska’s abundant salmon species, helping support Alaska fishermen and responsible use of our local fisheries.
