Hi there, are the eels from fresh water, sea, or farmed please?

In captivity (or in European waters), eels do not breed naturally because of this inhibition of the development of their reproductive organs.

what is the expiry on this please?

Hi, The Smoked eel is 20 days from production but can also be frozen for up to 12 months.

Does it contain bones?

Not really, no (mostly no bones), perhaps a very very small ones only - they are edible if you come across any except from the back bone. The fish itself is very rich in omega 3 & 6, and has a great taste. I just wish they would not salt it too much and they started to put the tail parts in the packs, which are less meaty, less oily and cheaper. Hope my answer helped.

Does the eel have to be put in the fridge once delivered

Yes, this is a smoked eel fillet, and it does definitely need to be refrigerated once delivered. It will spoil if left unrefrigerated.

Another delicious product from Port of Lancaster. Buy with confidence.

Found a recipe for Spaghettini with smoked eel, garlic, chilli and pangrattato that I wanted to try out but couldn’t find anywhere locally that sold good smoked eel. Port of Lancaster Smokehouse to the rescue. Delicious, great quality smoked eel delivered to my door in their excellent cooled packaging. Will not hesitate to buy again - the recipe was a great success with the eel as the star of the show. I’ve made several purchases from Port of Lancaster now, all of which have been great quality items, despatched quickly with great care taken over packaging so they arrive in tip top condition.

How many times has it been refrozen

Most awfull tasting eel I've ever tasted obviously new Zealand is a step too far. Very sad to say having eaten smoked eels all my life, these 5 packets are a waste of money

Good but not worth the premium price

The product was fine, tasted reasonably good. However, it didn't compare to the smoked eels I have had in nice restaurants so I don't feel this is something I'd buy again at this price.

Expensive but good.

My mother loves smoked eel and I have always bought her a whole eel for her birthday. Now in her 90s she appreciated the ease of use of this product and also loved the flavour. Very expensive for what you get but worth it to those who like it.
