La Curiosa - Marinated Galician Octopus

£12.95

This octopus comes from waters that have been lit by the Tower of Hercules for two thousand years. While empires rose and fell, languages evolved and instagram became unusable, Galician fishermen kept pulling octopus from these Atlantic depths.

This octopus has good bite, and the garlicky acidity keeps everything lively. Its a really good full flavoured tin. Tip the contents over warm potatoes or cooked white beans with good olive oil, and maybe a few fresh herbs, or eat from the tin with whatever bottle you fancy opening. Either way, you're eating something that connects you to a history of fishing older than The Romans.

Ingredients: Octopus (Octopus vulgaris) (fish), olive oil, and spices.

Net Weight: 110g

About La Curiosa

La Curiosa offers a refreshing counterpoint in the Spanish tinned fish landscape—a young brand without multi-generational tales yet deeply connected to Galician canning craft. Founded by Cristobal Fernández, whose mother's 15-year cannery career sparked his fascination, this brand balances respect for tradition with youthful energy.

What makes La Curiosa stand out is their commitment to producing exclusively in Portomar's factories surrounding Ría de Arousa—Galicia's seafood heartland. Their quality Galician conservas maintain time-honoured techniques, including rarely seen processes like fish roasting, while bringing fresh perspective to a traditionally conservative industry.

Each Spanish tinned delicacy features seafood from Galician waters at peak seasonality, following the natural rhythms of the sea rather than market demands. Their approach is decidedly hands-on—pieces carefully selected and positioned by skilled workers to ensure proper presentation and flavour, with sauces made from traditional recipes using only natural ingredients.
