Wild-caught large spot shrimp from Prince William Sound, sold as a premium alternative to farm-raised shrimp. They are known for a sweet, briny flavor and a firm, lobster-like snap, and they carry no antibiotics or preservatives. They suit anyone who wants restaurant-quality shellfish to cook at home, though they demand careful thawing and quick cooking. Against farmed shrimp they offer cleaner flavor and firmer texture, but they are a seasonal wild product with less consistent availability.

Buyers rate these shrimp very highly, praising the sweet flavor and firm texture as closer to lobster than to ordinary shrimp. Most complaints center on prep work and the care needed not to overcook them.
These are 100% wild-caught Alaskan spot shrimp, also called spot prawns, harvested from the cold waters of Prince William Sound near Whittier, Alaska. The flavor is sweet and briny, and the texture is firm and buttery with a snap. They are sold shell-on with the heads removed.
The shrimp are processed and flash-frozen within hours of harvest. They contain no antibiotics or preservatives. They are high in protein, omega-3s and essential minerals, and low in calories.
Edible roe (eggs) may be present, especially in fall harvests. Roe presence varies by season and is not guaranteed. The shrimp can be quick-cooked in garlic butter, tossed with linguine, sautéed, boiled or deep-fried.
