Black Tiger Head On (HOSO)
Our Black Tiger Head On (HOSO) shrimp is the flagship product of Bangladesh’s seafood industry. Locally known as "Bagda," these shrimps are celebrated for their dramatic appearance, characterized by bold, dark stripes on their shells. By keeping the head intact, we preserve the natural fat and essence of the shrimp, which provides a rich, deep flavor during cooking that is highly prized in Mediterranean and Asian cuisines.
Sourced from the saline coastal belts of the Bay of Bengal, these shrimps are harvested and immediately chilled to maintain the highest level of freshness. Whether grilled, steamed, or sautéed, the Black Tiger HOSO maintains a firm, meaty texture and an impressive plate presence that signifies luxury and quality.
