Frozen Murmansk Shrimp (2 lb Pack)

Sourced from the frigid, pristine waters of the Barents Sea, Murmansk Shrimp are valued for their naturally sweet taste, clean ocean flavor, and firm yet tender texture. Harvested in the Arctic, where extremely cold waters slow the shrimp’s growth, they develop dense, high-quality meat that distinguishes them from many warm-water varieties.

After harvesting, the shrimp are fully cooked and flash-frozen to help retain their freshness, flavor, texture, and nutritional value. This rapid freezing process preserves their ocean-fresh character while providing a convenient premium seafood option that can be enjoyed throughout the year.
