Lapin Poron liha is a meat coming from the reindeer calves which are less than one year old and adult reindeer that graze freely in Finland's reindeer husbandry area. The harsh climate and diverse seasons combined with highly nutritious summer feed make the reindeer meat a unique product.
This meat is tender, dark and very rich in vitamins and minerals. It has a very low amount of fats, but those are as healthy as fish fats due to a very high content of fatty acids. The difference between calf meat and adult reindeer meat is in fat and energy content that is greater in the latter group.
