Launching 2027 · World First
Doncella
The most prized freshwater fish of the Peruvian Amazon — never exported, until now.
The Species
A legend of the Amazon, raised at origin
Pseudoplatystoma punctifer · known as surubim and pintado in Brazil
The most prized freshwater catfish in South America, and the jewel of the Peruvian Amazon. White, delicate, boneless flesh of rare refinement, with an elegance on the plate that has made it legendary among those who know it.
The doncella has never been exported. Ours will be the first compliant international supply, launching in 2027. Like our paiche, it is born and raised on our farm in Ucayali, never wild-caught, fully traceable, raised without antibiotics or hormones.

Delicate, boneless white flesh
Fine-grained, mild and refined, a rare elegance on the plate, free of intramuscular bones.
Raised, never wild-caught
Born and raised on our farm in Ucayali, fully traceable, with zero pressure on wild stocks.
