About Old Habits Old Habits is a Vancouver Island-based maker of traditional, naturally fermented fish sauces, using only two ingredients: wild-caught local fish and Pacific Northwest sea salt—a method inspired by ancient Roman techniques from 2,000 years ago Why It’s Special - Traditional minimalist approach: Only fish and salt, no additives—fermented like ancient Roman garum or Italian colatura, Japanese shottsuru, and ishiri. - Lower salt content and longer aging than most commercial sauces, producing a gentler yet intensely flavored product that stands on its own like olive oil or soy sauce - Seasonal, limited-edition barrels and small-batch barrel aging enhance complexity and craft exclusivity.
