Born of the Rock and Coral Indonesia’s vast coastline, dotted with volcanic rocks and complex coral structures, creates the ideal hunting ground for Octopus cyanea (and other premium species). Unlike open-water catch, our octopus is sourced from these nutrient-dense intertidal zones. This specific habitat forces the octopus to be active and strong, resulting in meat that is naturally firm yet capable of becoming incredibly tender when handled correctly. The flavor profile is distinct: a clean, oceanic salinity with a hint of natural sweetness that chefs adore.
A Traditional Approach Our sourcing relies heavily on coastal communities using traditional, low-impact fishing methods—primarily trap-caught or spear-caught by skilled divers. This artisanal approach is crucial for quality. It ensures that each octopus is harvested selectively, minimizing stress and preventing physical damage to the skin and suckers. We deliver a product that is not only visually perfect—with skin intact and vibrant—but also ethically sourced, supporting the livelihoods of local coastal villages.
