Icelandic Lamb

Icelandic lambs and sheep come from a pure lineage of 1,100 years, Icelandic Lamb grazes freely in wild pastures, acquiring delicate flavors of berries and arctic herbs.  They enjoy 20+ hours sunshine, pure water and green grass all summer.

Iceland is one of the world’s youngest land masses, surrounded by the unspoiled North Atlantic and on the cusp of the Arctic Circle. This is where the Icelandic Lamb and sheep graze in fertile, pristine pastures all summer long. The purity of the landscape ensures the matching purity of the Icelandic lambs – no other lamb breed can quite reach the same standard.

The purity of Icelandic Lamb is strictly controlled and regulated, ensuring that no growth-promoting antibiotics, GMOs, hormones, pesticides or herbicides can be found in our high-quality Icelandic Lamb

Icelanders care for every single lamb. Sheep farmers in Iceland take a personal approach to animal welfare. In May, at the start of lambing season, Icelandic farmers prepare for the birth of a new flock. This is a special time when each newborn lamb is welcomed. Farmers take great care to track which lambs have come from which ewe and as they grow and develop in these first few weeks, they keep a watchful eye on them. By having a close relationship with their sheep, filled with care and concern, risk factors in health and disease are minimized.
