We prepare and pin bone the side of trout, then cure the trout with our unique brine ready for hot smoking using an aromatic mix of apple, oak and a little hickory. The result is a gift to the senses: succulent fillets with a golden brown glow encouraging taste with its deep and layered smoky aroma.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGreat Taste Awards 2026, 3-Star Winning Product.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-32738\" src=\"https:\/\/butler-country-estates.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/great-taste-2026-3-star-award.png\" alt=\"great taste 2026 3 star award\" width=\"200\" height=\"201\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the judges:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAn appealing trout fillet with a natural glistening look. The fillet was of good depth and we liked the presence of some belly fat giving an authentic look. The flesh was beautifully pink and there was a gentle smokiness, with sweetness from the apple and finishing with the hickory. The texture of the trout was perfect, indicating a good cure.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eA sizeable fish, with a gorgeously pink flesh and evidence of skilled smoking. The aromas are tantalising, and then they really deliver a delicious, rich, fruity wood along with the fishy, salty flavours, which together work magic on the palate. The balance is just right, the texture wonderful, and the smoking perfect. We loved this.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe trout has a lovely colour and an inviting aroma, and it flakes beautifully. The hickory adds real subtlety to the smoke, and the fish has a rich and moreish taste. This fish has been treated with great care. We particularly liked the almost caramel taste of the thin side - almost a Maillard reaction.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eA rustic-looking and eye-catching smoked trout fillet with a golden sheen on the crust. Perfectly cooked as the fish flakes readily with a knife. Intensely coloured and juicy, it is pungently smoky and aromatic on the nose. The richness of flavours floods across the palate and the judges remarked on the complexity and depth of flavour together with the delightful moistness. The smoke is well balanced and this is a taste sensation\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContains: \u003cstrong\u003efish.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Butler Country Estates","offers":[{"title":"Tail 50-99g","offer_id":59986247942469,"sku":"HST107","price":4.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Kama\/Front 175-200g.","offer_id":59986247975237,"sku":"HST111","price":10.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Middle\/Back 125-149g","offer_id":59986248008005,"sku":"HST109","price":8.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Middle\/Front 150-174g","offer_id":59986248040773,"sku":"HST110","price":9.55,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tail\/Back 100-124g","offer_id":59986248073541,"sku":"HST108","price":6.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1050\/1190\/4837\/files\/hampshire-smoked-trout-fillets_1990a53e-d56d-4a69-ac4a-c10add4829f8.jpg?v=1793337311","url":"https:\/\/www.foodfolks.com\/products\/hampshire-smoked-trout-fillets","provider":"FoodFolks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
