The renown and quality of Puruvesi vendace are based on its clean living environment. Their bones are softer compared to vendace caught from other lakes, and the crystal-clear waters of Lake Puruvesi creates the most high-quality fish as well as ensuring their double intake of vitamin D from sunlight.
