Neven Maguire participated in a cookery demonstration in aid of some worthy Kilkenny charities a few weeks ago . He kindly decided to showcase our new hot smoked completely boneless rainbow trout . He made a buttery smoked trout sauce to accompany roasted haddock. it tasted delicious . We swapped some trout for his latest cookery book at the end of the night. I think he is the food version of Daniel O Donnell.!! Really lovely guy.

Anne Neary (pictured above, left) from Ryeland House cookery school has been kind enough to come on a mini tour with Goatsbridge Trout Farm to help promote our product and educate the public in the art of cooking trout. We began out three day tour in Borris where we cooked for 50 members of the active retirement groups. We then went to Kells in Co. Kilkenny where we were greeted by 30 locals and we ended our tour in Callan Co. Kilkenny where showed over 200 mostly ladies just how good our product is. People are really excited to hear about the new innovation used to product the first completely boneless trout fillet in this country.

Shop 2009

We met a lot of our existing retailers in the 3 days spent in the RDS, Dublin. It is very important to be there to cement relationships and we will certainly be there next year. We did a lot of networking and learned a lot of useful information from fellow food producers. Alas, we did not get any prize for our first added value product, our hot smoked rainbow trout fillet which is the first boneless one to be available in Ireland. Maybe next year!
