    These are great little sardines, and a great value for what you get. And for what it’s worth, I really like the packaging/design. I typically prefer small sardines to “regular” (?), and having tried both from Sardinha, I found that to be the case here as well. These are a great can and I look forward to trying more from this line.

    These are going to be a staple for me. Little banged up upon opening the tin, but the small sardines were clean tasting, meaty, and tender. Absolutely perfect size for crackers. My tin had 14 little sardines inside.

    I enjoy smaller sardines and these are not a bad choice at all if you’re looking for some. Great packaging. Not the prettiest little fish but definitely nice enough quality. Good texture and not super fishy. Eaten out of the time on some Finnish rye crisps with Espinaler sauce. Yum.

    While this might not have the tin appeal of a Ramon Peña or Espinaler baby deen, this tin is loaded with delicious fishy flavor. These little deens were delicious on their own but were next level on some rice with tamari and chili crisp. The olive oil was very flavorful as well, would definitely recommend this tin!

    VERY impressive tin, very. So much flavor, brilliantly seasoned, a clear standout. Agree with other reviewers that they aren’t the most beautiful sardines but what does that matter when they taste like this!? Flaky, moist, a little softer than medium texture. I absolutely loved these straight out of the tin at room temp and I could eat these every single day. This Sardinha tin is nearly matching the brilliance of Yurrita small sardines (maybe that deserves a head-to-head tasting!) and that’s a tremendous compliment. Worth the price. BUY THESE.

    These were small and easy to use, texture was great, oil was very mild but has a slightly stronger fishy taste than some others. I would purchase these if you are looking for a smaller and unassuming sardine that is versatile and stands on its own.

    This was a very impressive tin of small sardines. Cracking open I counted 12 somewhat rustic looking fish that were firm enough to come out of the tin without falling apart. Medium-soft texture and no scales that I could detect. Oil was mild and the seasoning was spot-on. All-in-all this is a tin of small sardines worth trying out, especially at this price point compared to some of the premium brands out there.

    A very delicious tin – one of my favorites from Sardinha! These little sardines have such a strong, distinct flavor. The texture was delicate and tender – they do fall apart easily, but I kind of liked that. The olive oil was also especially good.

    Oh goodness – these little guys are incredibly delicious. The flavor is clean and not overly fishy, as was the oil. The texture was firm, and moist, with a great flake to it.
    These are most definitely one of my top 5 deenz. Also, the packaging is absolutely darling. Cannot wait to order them again.
