Himalayan Trout

Your Tasty, Healthy New Favourite!

 

Usually found in cool water, Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) belongs to the Salmonidae family of fishes. The journey of the Rainbow Trout of Kashmir began in 1899 when the Duke of Bedford brought along with him 10,000 eggs of Trout ova to the valley. However, the first batch perished enroute but the second batch arrived perfectly and thus, the journey of trout commenced in the Kashmir valley.

Widely consumed today, the Himalayan Rainbow Trout is lovingly called ‘the pride of the Himalayas’ and is a game fish which is largely found in the Kashmir Valley.

The glacier water of Koholoi Glacier allows for Trout to be cultivated in the districts of Kashmir, with consistent high levels of quality. Low in mercury and therefore uncontaminated, our trout is cultivated from the freshwater of River Lidder.

Zarin’s trouts are all sourced from our culturing farms in the valleys of Kashmir.

Absolutely!
