Giribizzi Sardines in Olive Oil 100g

Ideal as a snack, added in salad or as a pasta condiment.

These sardines are fished in the Mediterranean Sea.

The fishermen use a “gozzo”, traditional Italian boat with a lamplight at the bow to attract them during the night. Once caught, the sardines are then carefully selected by hand, cleaned with care and steamed for about an hour to keep its organoleptic properties to the full, before been placed in a tin with olive oil. Very delicate taste and flavoursome

Nominated for the Golden Fork 2023 and winner of 3 gold stars at GTA. Judges comments: "Light in aroma but with a strong compact texture that is really meaty..."

"The oil is light and wonderful, the product was very much enjoyed"

"These sardines had a really firm flesh and although tinned and cured, they had a fresh taste of the sea to them"

"Creamy, meaty mouthfeel, not overly salty and the oil does not dominate..."

"Judges simply thought these sardines were absolute perfection. The flavour was so fresh, rich and clean, and the olive oil made for a perfect partnership with the fish. The texture could not have been better, either. Just so special.."
