What makes Silver Hill Ducks the best in the world?

Silver Hill Duck Managing Director Micheál Briody

If you’ve ever had roast duck so tender it melts in your mouth, chances are it was a Silver Hill Duck. Hailed as “the Wagyu of duck” and trusted by some of the top Chinese kitchens across London and beyond, Silver Hill has built a reputation for producing the best duck in the world. But what actually sets it apart?

Let’s take a closer look at why Silver Hill Duck is in a league of its own and why chefs, restaurants, and food lovers everywhere keep coming back for more.

A Breed Like No Other

Silver Hill isn’t just sourcing duck, they’ve created their own unique breed over the last 60+ years in County Monaghan, Ireland. This hybrid duck is known for its succulence, flavour, and ideal fat-to-meat ratio, making it perfect for everything from traditional Chinese roast duck to fine dining dishes.

Natural Diet, Happy Ducks

What the ducks eat (and how they live) makes a big difference. Silver Hill ducks are free roaming, fed a 100% natural diet, and raised to high welfare standards. No growth hormones, no shortcuts — just ethical farming and great taste.

Total Quality Control

Silver Hill does things differently. They manage the entire process from breeding and hatching to feeding, processing, and packing. This full control means their ducks are traceable, consistent, and incredibly fresh. They even air chill their ducks to lock in flavour, without adding water like some commercial producers do.

The Duck Behind the Glass

If you’ve walked through Chinatown in London and seen glistening roasted ducks hanging in restaurant windows, there’s a good chance they’re from Silver Hill. Their head-on ducks are a favourite for traditional Chinese roast. It’s no wonder they’ve earned the nickname “The Mother of All Duck” in the industry.

Trusted by the Best

Silver Hill supplies over 27 countries around the world and has become the go-to choice for chefs at top restaurants and hotel groups.
