A chardonnay from Australia and another from northern California might be made from the same grapes, but they taste very different. Why?

Verlasso Salmon is the Kobe Beef of the Sea. Here’s Why.

Kobe Beef is widely known as the world’s best. Chefs and foodies speak in hushed tones about this legendary meat, which sells for hundreds of dollars per pound—and that’s only if you can find it. Connoisseurs of steak extol Kobe’s rich, almost sweet flavor and melt-in-your-mouth texture and recommend eating it rare or even raw to fully enjoy its quality.

Verlasso celebrates its 10th Anniversary in 2021!

Back in 2011, AquaChile launched Verlasso to create a new way of thinking about aquaculture, with the goal of raising salmon in a more sustainable and environmentally friendly way, in the cold, clean, nutrient-rich waters of the Humboldt Current off the southern coast of Patagonia in Chile’s Region XII. And this year, in 2021, Verlasso celebrates a decade delivering the best salmon to the world!

Helping Turn The Tide on Deforestation With Sustainable Salmon

Helping Turn The Tide on Deforestation With Sustainable Salmon

As a leader for over a decade in sustainable aquaculture, Verlasso has made a commitment to protecting the precious biodiversity and ocean ecosystem surrounding our farms in Chile. Our environmental pledge, however, reaches far beyond our waters.

In addition to an agreement with the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) to achieve 100% Aquaculture Stewardship Council certification for all of its operations, our parent company, AquaChile, is dedicated to sourcing soy – a key ingredient in our salmon feed – from non-deforestation certified areas.
