What type of sardine do we put in our tins?

Because we’re committed to using quality products, we only select Sardina pilchardus for our tins. The majority of our fish is caught along the Breton coast (half of which comes from Quiberon) and the Atlantic coast, from the Bay of Biscay to the Irish coast. We also have special agreements with fishermen from Brittany and La Turballe region to source locally as much as possible.

What are the health benefits of eating sardines?

Sardines are full of goodness and contain six nutrients essential for our well-being. The high levels of omega-3 and vitamin B12 reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, while the vitamin D, phosphorus and calcium help to strengthen bones. Sardines are also recommended for athletes because of their high protein content.

How are our sardines prepared?

Our priority is to offer you quality canned fish. We only use fresh sardines caught during the fishing season for our canned products. Every morning, from May to November, we receive sardines fresh off the boat. They’re salted and gutted and their heads are removed. This is all done by hand to preserve the very soft meat. They’re then placed on racks and washed. Once they’re dry, they’re cooked in sunflower oil. The canning process is then carried out by hand by our teams, before being sealed and sterilised in tins.

What are vintage sardines?

Selected for their taste, our vintage sardines are exceptional products. Prepared by expert sardine makers, these sardines have been stored for two years, giving them time to mature and improve. The extra virgin olive oil will bring out the delicate flavours in the fish.
