The \u003cem\u003ealmadraba \u003c\/em\u003etraps are set up from April to June, the time when the tuna pass through the Strait of Gibraltar. Towns along this stretch of the Costa de la Luz, including Barbate, hold festivals in May to celebrate the arrival of the tuna and this ancient tradition.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the cannery:\u003c\/strong\u003e artisanal cannery Herpac is a family business, founded in 1986 by brothers Francisco and Diego Pacheco. Herpac is a portmanteau word, a blend of \u003cem\u003ehermanos\u003c\/em\u003e (brothers) and Pacheco. It began life as a small shop in the Andalusian fishing town of Barbate, specialising in \u003cem\u003emojama\u003c\/em\u003e, tuna that is salted and air-dried in the sun. Today it employs 120 people, the vast majority of whom live in Barbate, and is lead by the third generation of the Pacheco family. It continues its mission to introduce the richness of the Barbate sea to tables outside Spain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"herpac","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57628376367484,"sku":"HER07BLUMOR","price":42.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0772\/7801\/9900\/files\/herpac-bluefin-tuna-morrillo.jpg?v=1791607654","url":"https:\/\/www.thetinnedfishmarket.com\/products\/bluefin-tuna-morrillo","provider":"The Tinned Fish Market","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
