"After 19 years of writing the mail-order gift guide,
nothing has dimmed my enthusiasm for finding secret sources for the new and the exotic.
I never tire of the chase in the search for holiday gifts that actually taste as good as they
look in the glossy brochures, not to mention arrive on time and intact. But on the 20th anniversary
of the guide, in a year when everyone is craving a taste of something wonderful and comforting
and familiar, I decided to showcase my all-time top 25 picks, chosen from the hundreds of foods
I have tasted over the years. I tried smoked salmon from six companies. Classic Scottish
Highland smoked salmon, a center-cut piece from DURHAM'S TRACKLEMENTS, beat five others from
some of the country's best purveyors. With an exquisite balance of smoke and salt, it has a
silkiness that melts in your mouth."
--Marian Burros, The New York Times, November, 2001, “A Delivery of Holiday Bests”
