Ōra King Salmon: The Wagyu of the Sea
At Truluck’s, our passion is delivering the ocean’s finest—seafood that reflects artistry, integrity, and an unwavering standard of quality. Every detail, from how our fish are sourced to how they’re presented at your table, honors both the sea and the craft of exceptional dining. Few ingredients embody this spirit more beautifully than Ōra King Salmon, often called the Wagyu of the Sea.
From the Pristine Waters of New Zealand
Raised in the clean, cool waters of New Zealand’s Marlborough Sounds, Ōra King Salmon flourishes in strong tidal currents and oxygen-rich flows that mirror wild conditions. The fish are hand-reared and responsibly fed in a balanced ecosystem that promotes both health and sustainability.
The result: salmon with exquisite marbling, a vibrant ruby hue, and a luxuriously smooth finish that chefs around the world prize for its versatility and remarkable flavor.
Ōra King Salmon transforms a simple dish into something extraordinary—rich yet delicate, indulgent yet pure.
Sustainability at Its Core
Truluck’s commitment to sustainability is more than a philosophy—it’s the foundation of everything we do. That’s why we partner exclusively with fisheries and farms that share our dedication to environmental stewardship and ethical sourcing.
In the Marlborough Sounds, Ōra King’s farmers operate with exceptional care, reducing waste, protecting water quality, and nurturing local biodiversity. Their apprenticeship programs also help train the next generation of aquaculture experts, ensuring that this mindful approach continues for years to come.
Every fillet tells a story of passion and purpose—a perfect balance of indulgence and integrity that aligns seamlessly with Truluck’s promise to deliver The Ocean’s Finest Seafood & Crab.
A Culinary and Nutritional Treasure
Much like Wagyu beef, Ōra King’s signature marbling enhances tenderness and elevates its natural flavor, creating a mouthfeel that’s silky, buttery, and deeply satisfying. Each bite reveals the clean essence of the ocean, balanced by a subtle sweetness and lingering umami finish.
Beyond its taste, Ōra King Salmon is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids that support brain and heart health—a delicious harmony of pleasure and nourishment that embodies the mindful indulgence our guests value.
Wine Pairings: Perfect Companions
Every extraordinary dish deserves an equally remarkable wine. Truluck’s Director of Beverage, Dave Mattern, curates pairings that amplify Ōra King Salmon’s refined texture and flavor:
- Pinot Noir – Light, silky tannins and red-fruit notes complement the salmon’s buttery richness.
- Chardonnay – A lightly oaked style mirrors its velvety texture while crisp acidity balances the finish.
- Sauvignon Blanc – Herbaceous, citrus-driven brightness cuts through the salmon’s natural richness.
- Champagne or Sparkling Wine – Effervescence cleanses the palate and adds a celebratory sparkle to every bite.
Each sip enhances the salmon’s depth and complexity, turning your meal into a symphony of flavor and refinement.
