    This tin was delicious! The drawing on the package was appealing and cute and the fish inside the tin was a good amount! It looks like the pictures shown in the product listing, with a generous amount of fish and visible flecks of the oil additions with no large pieces. The amount of fish feels like a great deal for the price and the taste was mild but good with no strong fishiness or smell. I had it over a salad and used the extra oil as my dressing. While I couldn’t pick out any specific flavor of olive, pepper, or herbs, it melded together to create an appetizing taste that I enjoyed. It felt light and I have no complaints. I would be happy to enjoy this tin again.

    Excellent tin of mackerel. The seasoned olive oil begs to be balanced with an acid like seasoned vinegar. This with pickled red onions in (red wine vinegar, rice vinegar, white vinegar, and sugar, pepper, salt) is a match made in heaven.

    Great tin! Very comparable to the King Oscar Mediterranean mackerel (which is high praise). Not many olive slices/pieces in the tin, but the fish felt a tiny bit higher quality and the depth of flavor a touch higher than KO. You get a slight mackerel chew here but the texture is very, very good and the moisture is much better than almost all other mackerel.

    As I’ve come to expect from Ocean’s, this is great. I didn’t taste it side by side with KO, but I have it just barely below the gold standard KO Mediterranean. If you love that tin, then you need to try this one.

    Love the price points and flavors of Ocean’s tins. Always knock it out of the park and dont break the bank.

    Although a little soft they still had a nice texture and chew. Flavors are very well balanced with nothing really being a star ingredient. Highly recommended tin and will continue my journey with Ocean’s products.
