Troon & lobster
Troon's lobster and langoustine come from Scotland's cold Atlantic west coast and the Minch, where creel fishermen have hauled pots from small boats for generations — shellfishing has been a Highland and island mainstay for centuries.
🦞 Lobster lore
Soft-shell (new-shell) lobster, common from July, holds less meat but many locals prize it as sweeter and easier to crack by hand.
