Abernethy Dulse & Irish Sea Salt Butter is a handcrafted butter enriched with dulse seaweed and Atlantic sea salt, offering a unique flavor combination that brings a taste of the Irish coast to your table. Dulse is a red seaweed harvested along the northern coast of Ireland, known for its rich mineral content and natural saltiness.


By blending this seaweed with creamy butter, the result is a product with subtle oceanic notes and a delicate salinity, perfect for enhancing the flavors of various dishes. This butter is particularly delicious when paired with fish, seafood, or vegetables, adding depth and complexity to the taste.


It can also be spread on fresh bread or used to finish warm dishes, where its rich aroma will truly shine.

About Abernethy Butter

Abernethy Butter is a family-run artisanal dairy. It was founded by husband-and-wife team Will and Allison Abernethy, who transformed their passion for traditional butter-making into a successful business. Their butter is handcrafted using traditional methods from fresh cream sourced from a local farmer, whose cows graze on the lush green fields of the Lagan Valley.


The production process involves slow churning in small batches, which gives the butter its characteristic color and rich flavor. After churning, the butter is hand-washed to remove any remaining buttermilk, lightly salted, and shaped using traditional wooden paddles.


In addition to their classic salted and unsalted butter, Abernethy Butter offers specialty varieties, including black truffle butter, butter with dulse seaweed and Irish sea salt, black garlic butter, and a seasonal Christmas butter infused with dates, rum, and spices.


Thanks to their commitment to quality and dedication to preserving traditional techniques, Abernethy Butter has become a symbol of exceptional handcrafted butter, highly regarded among gastronomy enthusiasts and professional chefs alike.
