Specialising in producing traditional smoked fish, Apatu Aqua aims to provide fresh and smoked seafood to discerning seafood lovers. Based in Coopers Beach in the Far North, Hamish and Nichola Apatu have been catching and smoking fish for five years. To achieve their great tasting products they use fresh high quality ingredients including native manuka to give their fish a natural smoke flavour. They are also the team behind New Zealand’s first kina pate.
