Strict regulations, including size limits and seasonal closures, are in place to protect the sustainability of the species. Lobster fishermen in Scotland adhere to these guidelines, employing responsible harvesting methods that prioritize the preservation of the ecosystem. When you enjoy Scottish lobster, you can savour it with a clear conscience, knowing that it has been sourced sustainably.

Scottish lobsters have a firm yet tender texture that is highly desirable, making each bite a culinary delight. Whether enjoyed grilled, steamed or as the star ingredient in a decadent lobster roll, the flavour profile and mouthfeel of Scottish lobster are truly unparalleled.
