Cantara - Sardines in Olive Oil with Lemon

£4.95

Sardines in olive oil with a refreshing lemon twist.

These Portuguese sardines from Cantara's small-scale operation near Porto deliver a beautifully balanced eating experience. The natural sweetness of the fish is lifted by a measured touch of lemon that weaves through the tin. The bright citrus notes cut through the rich olive oil without overpowering the sardines flavour.

Serve them simply on good bread with quick-pickled red onions for effortless entertaining, or toss with warm pasta, adding a handful of fresh herbs for a fuller meal. These sardines come from daily fishing trips, ensuring peak freshness before they're carefully hand-packed and wrapped in Cantara's distinctive paper coverings.

Ingredients: Sardines (Sardina Pilchardus Walbaum): min. 70%, Olive Oil: 12%, Lemon, Salt.

About Cantara

Near Porto, the family-run Cantara cannery brings Portugal's Atlantic seafood to the tin with remarkable attention to detail. Their sardines deliver that clean, bright flavour that makes Portuguese preserves so compelling—firm-textured and richly satisfying with the distinctive character that comes from traditional preparation.

What distinguishes Cantara is their commitment to small-scale, sustainable fishing. They work exclusively with boats that make single daily trips, ensuring the fish is processed at peak freshness. Each sardine is individually selected during appropriate seasons, preserving the natural rhythm of Portugal's Atlantic fishing communities.

The careful hand-wrapping in distinctive paper coverings doesn't just look beautiful—it represents a thoughtful approach to packaging that extends from ocean to table. For those who appreciate both flavour and intention, Cantara offers Portuguese seafood with genuine character.
