Gift
Smoked fish is the gift people remember, because almost nobody buys it for themselves. Pick a ready-made set below — or tell us the occasion and we will build a basket for it
Most gifts fall into two piles: things people already own, and things they will never use. Food avoids both — it gets finished, and it gets talked about while it is being finished
Smoked fish has one more advantage. It reads as expensive without being extravagant, and almost nobody thinks to buy it for themselves
The sets below are what we keep ready. But if you want something put together for a particular person — or a particular budget — just ask
Tell us the occasion, roughly what you want to spend, and anything you know about their taste. We will choose the fish, arrange it properly and wrap it: ribbon, a hand-written card, the whole thing. You will get a photo before it ships, so there are no surprises
There is no extra charge for the wrapping. It takes us a day or two on top of the usual, so give us a little notice around the holidays
To start one, message us on Instagram or email orders@smokeitfish.com
Our pick
The set we send when the gift has to land. Enough variety that everyone finds something, generous enough that it clearly was not an afterthought
This is the one for a milestone — a housewarming, a thank-you, a boss who has everything
$299
Best for a first taste
For someone who has never had proper smoked fish, this is the right introduction — a little of each kind, so they find their own favourite rather than being handed ours
$199
The showpiece
When you want the gift to be an event in itself. Caviar still carries that weight, and keta pearls are large, firm and clean-tasting — the kind people photograph before they open
$130
Under $50
Not every gift needs to be a statement. This is the one for a colleague, a neighbour or a secret santa — small, well-made, and better than another candle
$49
Tell us who it is for and roughly what you want to spend. We will put a basket together and send you a photo before it goes out
Message usYes — that is the usual way it works. Tell us the number and we will make it look like the number was bigger. Most custom baskets we put together land between $80 and $300.
The fish is arranged in a basket or a box, wrapped, and finished with a ribbon and a card. Nothing is loose and nothing rattles. If you want a particular colour or a specific message on the card, tell us and we will do it.
A day or two on top of normal shipping. Around Christmas and New Year, give us a week if you can — that is when everyone asks at once.
Yes — just enter their address at checkout and leave a note so we know it is a gift. We will not include a price anywhere in the box.
Sealed and refrigerated, the smoked items keep up to three weeks and the dried ones one to three months. Tell them to refrigerate it on arrival and there is no rush.
The packaging holds temperature for up to 48 hours, so a few hours on a porch is fine in mild weather. In summer, choose overnight shipping and pick a day they will be in.
