More information

These sardines (Sardina pilchardus or European sardine) are typical of the northwestern coast of the Iberian Peninsula and the Bay of Biscay. They are very recognizable by their silver belly and blue backs. They come from coastal fishing using traditional techniques such as the seine. This method, compared to pelagic trawling, helps preserve protected species such as dolphins and maintain the quality of the fish by avoiding pressure in large volumes. The size of these sardines corresponds to adult individuals that have completed more than one reproductive cycle, ensuring the preservation of the species in the future. Being caught in nearby waters minimizes the time between capture and processing of the fish. Once in the cannery, the sardines are cleaned and hand-packed with sunflower oil from certified organic agriculture in Spain. Sardines are a tasty and nutritious fish, highly valued in Mediterranean cuisine. They have a characteristic, intense and delicious flavor, softened by the sunflower oil. Enjoy this delicious, nutritious, and organic quality product, and experiment with new flavors to enrich your diet while taking care of your well-being.
