-- most intense lamb I've ever tried was in Iceland - had lamb many many times in Scotland and it was gamey - but the lamb in Iceland was next level - in fact it was so intense that I tried it at another restaurant the next day just to see if it was the place I'd eaten - nope - just as strong - I wondered why - if you happened to know --
- MayeulC 4y agoMale mutton tends to have a stronger taste, especially when older, where it can get too strong. It might depend on the age at which the lamb was slaughtered, as there is more meat as they grow older. (My parents raise a few sheep).
- meheleventyone 4y agoAll the sheep in Iceland are let out in the spring and spend their entire time living wild before being rounded up in autumn (which is a really big event). So they spend a lot more time eating quality food and mountain herbs. Makes all the difference. Lamb here really is amazing.
