It's mostly to sell to the Japanese market iirc. Not many in Iceland actually have a taste for whale. Huge waste of time and resources.

I've seen like a handful of places selling it in Iceland, and they're all full of tourists who have it just to say they've had it.

It's not great meat by all accounts.
