Premium canned seafood

 

The best tinned fish is seasonally caught to quota and hand packed. Fishing anchovies in the Cantabrian Sea in spring and albacore tuna in the summer months mean the fish are at their peak when they are canned. Seasonal fishing to quota is sustainable: fish caught for a limited period of time and are traceable ensures they are not overfished. Artisan tinned fish is canned by hand. This ensures better quality control: every tin contains fish cut to size, the correct measures of complementary olive oils, sauces and herbs, and the best quality fish in the tins. Each can of gourmet tinned fish is to the same high standard.
