Producer of the Finest Award-Winning Fresh and Smoked Trout Products From The Heart Of Hampshire.
Butler Country Estates makes delicious, award-winning smoked trout pate and fillets in the historic city of Winchester, in the heart of Hampshire. Our smokery lies within a few minutes of the River Test, Itchen and Meon, which are some of the finest nutrient-rich chalk streams in the world.
We use rainbow trout raised in Hampshire’s gin-clear crystal waters for our smoked trout pate, whole fish and fillets. Being so close to the rivers ensures a freshness which is exquisitely reflected in the taste of our pates and fillets. So much so that in 2020, we were awarded a Great Taste Star by The Guild of Fine Food, followed up with Two Stars in 2022 and a further Two Stars in 2023.
In 2025, we were awarded a Great British Food Awards Gold for our Classics Fresh Smoked Trout Pate by Judge Jack Stein, with the feedback, "This was amazing, loved the taste and texture and the colour. Well seasoned, ate the lot!"
Butler Country Estates serves local customers, shops, restaurants and food businesses with some of the finest gourmet smoked trout and pates that you will ever have the pleasure and privilege to enjoy. You can often measure a business by the customers who come back for more, or who tell their friends.
Over the last few years, we have built a dedicated customer base here in Hampshire and beyond. Not only that, our list of commercial partners continues to grow with our smoked trout products now available in village shops, bakeries, butchers and farm shops. Do come and say hello, visit us at the Troutlet, one of our Farmers’ Markets or find us on social media, we’ll look out for you.
