I really appreciate the amount and the packaging. It made it easy to portion out. I didn’t care for the flavor (bitter) but it took to a new marinade I made very well.

Lummi Island’s Ikura is by far the best deal on the internet. The quality is great. Love getting my fix of Ikura this way. Shipping to E TN during the heat of summer was not a deal! still frozen!

Ordered from Lummi Island for the first time after ordering from another company a few times. It was a present. The price was competitive and even a little lower than average. The delivery was flawless (I paid for one-day), and, most importantly, the quality was excellent. Will definitely order from them again.

I have been eating Ikura since 2016. For years I was ordering from another company. After their quality seemed to go downhill a couple of years ago, back in 2021 I started to search for another source. After trying a few different ones, luckily I found Lummi Island Wild, and have been ordering from them ever since. I have tried all their different kinds of Ikura, and this one (Chum) is my favorite by far, and it has the highest Omega3 content as well, so it’s a win/win for me!

This is a good amount or roe which I plan to use over a period of time. Therefore I really liked the packaging–lets me scoop out small portions, place a small piece of plastic wrap over the opening, and reseal the exterior package. Shipping was timely and dry ice kept everything perfect.

We think the Chum Salmon Ikura has been consistently amazing, and the packaging & shipping (even to hot Phoenix in the summer) has been exceptional.
