Hákarl – Icelandic Fermented Shark

One of Iceland’s most legendary traditional foods, hákarl (fermented shark) has been part of our culture for centuries. Made from the Greenland shark and processed through a special fermentation and drying method, it’s a delicacy known for its bold flavor and ammonia-rich aroma — definitely an acquired taste!

Enjoyed during Þorri, Iceland’s midwinter festival, hákarl is often served in small cubes alongside a shot of Brennivín. It’s more than a food — it’s a symbol of Icelandic heritage, survival, and pride.

Whether you’re reliving memories from Iceland or curious to try something truly unique, you can now buy hákarl online and have it delivered straight to your door.

(Some even search for it as “hákarl kaufen” — we see you, Germany 🇩🇪)
