José Gourmet - Small Sardines in Extra Virgin Olive Oil

£6.20

Small sardines have a tenderness that larger ones don't - something about the size means they almost melt on the tongue. These Portuguese fish sit in extra virgin olive oil with just salt added, original and best according to our customers.

The oil quality matters here. You can taste it clearly: fruity, slightly peppery, doing what good olive oil should do with fish that's this delicate. Perfect on good toast with the oil soaking through, or tossed through hot pasta with garlic and chilli flakes and all of the oil.

Good with sliced tomatoes and bread, or straight from the tin with crackers, simple preparation with quality ingredients.

Ingredients: Sardines (Sardina pilchardus) (72%), extra virgin olive oil (27%) salt.

Net Weight: 90g

About José Gourmet

José Gourmet connects Portugal's small-scale canneries with international markets through carefully selected premium Portuguese tinned fish. Named for the Hebrew word meaning "one who adds," the brand brings added value to traditional seafood.

Their collection features the Atlantic's quality offerings—Portuguese sardines with clean flavors; mackerel that maintains its character; and traditional tuna preserves that reflect Portugal's fishing expertise.

Designer Luís Mendonça shaped their identity by commissioning artwork from Portuguese illustrators for each label. These distinctive tins are instantly recognisable in specialty shops across Europe and North America. Served simply—with bread, citrus, and a glass of wine—these artisanal conservas deliver an authentic taste of Portugal's coastal traditions.
