This award-winning part of the business benefits from direct access to the source of fresh fish. What’s more, Severn and Wye chip all their own oak wood for their traditional smoking production techniques and the grading; filleting, curing and cutting are still mostly performed by hand giving their smoked products a distinctive taste.
Severn and Wye also deal directly with fishermen, ensuring the essential traceability of each catch.
This family-run smokery is located on the estuaries of the Rivers Severn and Wye, where the Cooks’ involvement in the fish industry began by collecting and marketing wild salmon, sea trout, sea bass and eels for local, national, and international distribution.
