Where to buy Icelandic Lamb in the USA ?

I'm posting this on the international board since people here are no dount familiar with getting hard-to-find imported food items in the USA.

The best lamb that I have ever tasted - and this is no exageration - was on a recent trip to Iceland.

Does anyone know where I can buy Icelandic lamb in the United States ?

I'll second your choice because I also was blown away by the lamb in Iceland, as well as the cost of a lamb dinner at a very modest little roadside restaurant in the middle of no where. Just a plate of lamb, gravy, potatoes and a vegetable for two was over $80 a few years ago. (!)

Wonder what it costs now. And fresh Icelandic fish came in a pretty close second for fresh and delicious.

You are right! If you say you don't like lamb - you haven't tried grassfed Icelandic!
It is seasonal though...lambs are born in March and April, raised on pasture and harvested in late summer/early fall.

We sell Icelandic Lamb in North Idaho.

You might also try Local Harvest for listings near you, or ISBONA - Icelandic Sheep Breeders of North America for local breeders. Bon Apetit!

I'm heading to Iceland in a couple weeks. Do you have any suggestions for restaurants where you enjoyed the lamb?(or other suggestions for Reykjavik dining) Thank you, and I hope you find a local lamb source!

I've posted a separate thread with suggestions for restaurants. You'll love the place !

Whole Foods (in Texas, at least) carries Icelandic lamb.

Thanks very much. I contacted them and they do in fact sell Icelandic lamb. However, it's only available on a seasonal basis. They'll have them in the fall.
