A truly wholesome tilapia
NO METHYLTESTOSTERONE
We do not soak our tilapia in any hormone, which are used to induce a sex change in order to obtain a male-only population (larger fillets).
NO ANTIBIOTICS
Our tilapia swims in concrete raceways with a constant flow of water (unlike stale water ponds). This flow acts as a cleaning agent, preventing bacteria to grow.
NO BLEACHERS OR CHEMICALS
This is a whole tilapia, and it shows. We do not treat out tilapia with bleachers to make it appear whiter or enhance its real appearance.
NO HUMAN POLLUTANTS
The first-use water coming directly from the Peruvian Andes into our farm ensures our tilapia grows and swims in water free of human-caused pollutants and by-products.
Rediscovering tilapia: The Peruvian Blue Tilapia
We farm a special tilapia, Oreochromis Aureus, also known as blue tilapia.
Blue tilapia allows for a thicker cut proportional to the length of the fillet, providing a meatier fillet. Blue tilapia unquestionably features a firmer meat, better texture, and color than other species of tilapia, all without using bleaching agents or hormones.
It's the flavor! ...or lack of (that muddy flavor)
And we farm it in a way that results in a delicious flavor hard to match by conventional tilapias- No more muddy flavor.
Many tilapias grown in stale-water soil ponds pick up a muddy flavor from the ponds. We have invested heavily in building concrete raceways, preventing our tilapia to pick up that muddy flavor typical of commonly available tilapias. In fact, we have seen many experts pleased and surprised when they learned that the fish just tried was in fact, a tilapia.
Wholesome, all natural
Farm-raised completely free of hormones, bleachers, antibiotics or chemicals, in raceways with a comfortable concentration of fish per cube meter, and enjoying of top quality unpolluted water directly from the Peruvian Andes.
100% traceable
No dubious origins, no questionable feeding, hygiene, labor fare issues. It comes from Peru, South America, directly from our farm.
Our tilapia source is located deep in northern Peru, hidden in one of the cleanest and unpolluted regions of the world. According to many experts, the combination of such pristine environment with leading-edge farming technology makes this aquaculture facility the premium tilapia fish farm in the Western hemisphere.
