José Gourmet Sardines in Extra Virgin Olive Oil

$10.00

Word has it that the best sardines come from neighbouring waters. From the Atlantic and Mediterranean, we get fresh sardines with a silver shine. Add quality olive oil to wine and dine! Olive oil has always been one of the desired partners in Portuguese cuisine, and only excellent ingredients can aspire to have memorable encounters with such a refined olive oil.

The sardines swam along the Atlantic coast, up and down, laughing and stretching, shaking and bending! That’s why our coast is as curvy as we know it!

    Ahh I get to be the first person to review something 🙂
    I decided to have this tin for my typical sardine breakfast this morning – cracking open the tin I was presented with a slight fish aroma. Inside were three large pichards (including one enormous chonker that was the largest I’ve ever seen in a tin, I should have taken a pic) packed in fairly tight. The EVOO was smooth and tasted of good quality. The fish themselves had a nice texture – soft without any mushiness and the taste was fairly mild for sardines this large. Had them on my sprouted grain toast and used the leftover bread to dab up the leftover EVOO.
    All in all a very nice tin and probably the best plain “chonker” size sardine in EVOO that I’ve had. Price point is the main thing going against it though, plain Nuri is about as good for a cheaper price.

    This is a Go-to. Ever since first trying it a couple of years ago, I feel that every time we open one of these, we look at the package thinking “we need to remember this one!” and realizing, its them again. The oil is great. We’ll eat these straight out of the tin on some bread with pickled red onions. Highly recommend!! For Jose Gourmet tins & sardines this quality in general, the price is very good too
