Real Conservera Española’s Albacore Tuna Ventresca in Olive Oil (Costera Edition) is one of the most exquisite tuna conservas you can buy — a true benchmark of Spanish seafood craftsmanship. Produced only during the peak costera season, when albacore reach their ideal fat and flavour, this limited edition reflects the meticulous standards that have made Real Conservera one of Spain’s most respected canneries since 1920.

Ventresca, the delicate belly cut, is prized for its buttery texture and naturally rich, almost silky mouthfeel. Unlike many commercial brands that can be dry or overly packed, Real Conservera hand-selects each fillet, arranges them gently by hand, and preserves them in fine olive oil that enhances rather than masks the fish’s pristine flavour. The result is astonishingly tender tuna with layered notes of sweetness, ocean freshness, and a luxurious finish that lingers.

This is the kind of conserva chefs reach for — refined, elegant, and deeply satisfying. Compared to other tuna on the market, the Costera Edition stands out for its texture, its purity, and its unmistakable small-batch quality.

Serving suggestion:
Serve the ventresca as-is with nothing more than thinly sliced tomatoes, flaky salt, olive oil, and good bread. Or break gently over warm potatoes with a squeeze of lemon and chopped parsley.

Real Conservera Española is recognised as one of the most prestigious conserva producers in Spain, admired globally for its craftsmanship, sourcing excellence, and deep respect for traditional methods. Their Costera Edition Albacore Tuna Loins embody everything that makes this house exceptional.

The Costera campaign marks the peak of the Atlantic albacore season, when Thunnus alalunga reaches its ideal fat content and flavour. Only the highest quality line-caught fish are selected, ensuring loins of perfect texture and remarkable purity. Each piece is cleaned, cut, and hand-packed with absolute precision to preserve the tuna’s structure and natural elegance.

This format features a generous 320g weight, containing beautifully aligned, premium-grade loins designed for entertaining, professional kitchens, or for those who appreciate the very best conservas. The tuna is submerged in high-quality olive oil which enhances tenderness and allows the flavours to mature gracefully over time.

Real Conservera Española is regarded as one of Spain’s most exceptional conserva houses, consistently ranked among the world’s finest for its dedication to craftsmanship, sustainable sourcing, and the extraordinary flavour of its seafood. Their Selección 1920 line represents the pinnacle of their work, and these Fried Mussels in Escabeche are a perfect example of why the brand is so revered.

Made exclusively with Galician Mytilus galloprovincialis mussels from the Rías, each piece is sourced at peak season when the meat is plump, flavourful, and naturally rich. The mussels are first cooked, then lightly fried in olive oil to intensify their aroma and deepen their texture. They are finally marinated in a refined escabeche, a traditional Spanish sauce that balances vinegar, paprika, and spices to create a bright, savoury, incredibly moreish result.

The Selección 1920 edition highlights only the finest calibre of mussels, hand-packed with precision to preserve their structure and the integrity of the marinade. The result is a delicacy that tastes both luxurious and deeply traditional.

Tasting Note
Firm, juicy mussels with a warm copper hue. Balanced acidity from the escabeche, a gentle smokiness from the frying, and a lingering savoury finish.

Ingredients
Mussels, olive oil, escabeche marinade (vinegar, spices), salt.

Serving Suggestions

• Enjoy straight from the tin with chilled Albariño.

Real Conservera Española’s scallops in brine showcase why this Galician cannery is considered one of the true jewels of Spain’s conservas world. Founded in 1920, the company has spent over a century perfecting the art of preserving seafood with an unwavering commitment to tradition, quality, and hand-crafted care. While many canneries focus on volume, Real Conservera stands apart for its meticulous selection process, small-batch production, and insistence on using only the finest raw product from the Rías Baixas. The result is a tin that feels more like a delicacy than a pantry staple.

These scallops—delicately tender, naturally sweet, and bathed in a clean, lightly salted brine—capture the pure flavour of Galicia’s cold Atlantic waters. There’s no heavy seasoning, no distractions: just beautifully preserved marisco at its peak. Compared with more commercial brands, Real Conservera’s approach is slower, more artisanal, and noticeably superior on the palate. It’s the kind of tin chefs reach for when they want guaranteed excellence.

Serving suggestion:

Drain the scallops and serve them chilled over thinly sliced cucumbers, a drizzle of top-quality olive oil, a squeeze of lemon, and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt. Add a few Marcona almonds on the side and pair with a crisp Albariño for a simple, elegant, restaurant-worthy plate.

Real Conservera Española is recognised as one of the finest seafood conserva producers in all of Spain, admired by chefs and gourmet shops worldwide for their meticulous craftsmanship, sustainable sourcing, and uncompromising standards. Their Small Sardines in Olive Oil are a perfect representation of this excellence.

These sardines, Sardina pilchardus, come exclusively from the cold, nutrient-rich estuaries of Galicia. They are caught using traditional, sustainable coastal fishing methods during the precise moment of the season when the fish carry more natural fat. This ensures a tender texture, rich flavour, and exceptional nutritional value. Each sardine is cleaned and eviscerated by hand with great care to avoid damage. They are then washed in brine and gently toasted in the traditional manner, which enhances aroma and gives the fish their characteristic firmness and sheen.

Once perfectly prepared, the sardines are packed by hand into the tin with a blend of refined and virgin olive oil that protects their delicate structure and amplifies their natural marine sweetness. With a six-year shelf life, the flavour develops beautifully over time.

Tasting Note
Bright silver shine. Dense yet creamy texture. Clean sea flavour with remarkable depth, mellowed by the olive oil.

Ingredients
Sardines, olive oil, salt.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve on toast with fresh tomato, salted butter, or thin slices of onion.
• Pair with roasted peppers, boiled potatoes, or a crisp green salad.
• Use in tapas with olives, lemon zest, or herbs.
• Enjoy directly from the tin for a pure gourmet tasting experience.

Real Conservera Española’s puntillas en su tinta (tiny squid in ink) are a masterpiece of Galician conservas craftsmanship. Founded in 1920, this storied cannery has spent more than a century elevating simple seafood into something extraordinary, and this tin is one of the clearest examples of why they stand apart from almost every other producer in Spain. While many canneries opt for speed and volume, Real Conservera remains firmly committed to small-batch excellence, meticulous hand-cleaning, and sourcing only the highest-quality squid from the cold waters of the Rías Baixas. The difference shows immediately.

Each bite is tender, silky, and full of depth — never rubbery, never overly salty, and beautifully infused with that rich, almost creamy black ink. These puntillas are, quite honestly, among the best I have ever tasted and a tin I recommend without hesitation. Compared to more commercial brands, this is finer, more delicate, more sophisticated. A true treat for anyone who loves real Spanish conservas.

Serving suggestion:
Warm the squid gently in their ink and spoon over toasted blackbird bread rubbed with a touch of garlic. Finish with a drizzle of good olive oil and a sprinkle of chopped parsley. Serve alongside plain white rice or grilled vegetables to let the ink sauce shine.

Real Conservera Selección 1920 brings scallops to a level that feels almost unfair to anything else in a tin. These prized zamburiñas are harvested at peak size and sweetness from the cold, pristine waters of Galicia, then hand-cleaned and slow-cooked in the cannery’s iconic Galician sauce (salsa gallega). The sauce itself is a generational recipe: gently sautéed onions, tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, and smoky paprika simmered down until it becomes rich, deep, and velvety — a flavour that tastes unmistakably of northern Spain.

What sets Selección 1920 apart is their obsessive attention to detail. Only the best scallops make it into this line, and the result is a tin with extraordinary balance: tender shellfish, a sauce with real backbone, and a finish that lingers with warmth and complexity. It’s refined, traditional, and incredibly versatile.

Serve it as a tapas centrepiece, fold it into warm rice, or spoon it over toasted bread — it’s the kind of conserva that makes even a simple snack feel like a chef-driven dish. For anyone who loves Spanish seafood, this is an essential pantry luxury.

Chorizo, Sarta, by Redondo Iglesias is a prime example of Spain's celebrated culinary tradition.This chorizo offers a distinctively rich and robust flavor profile that sets it apart. The pigs, known for their premium quality, roam freely in Spain’s dehesas and feed on acorns, which imparts a unique nutty sweetness to the meat.

What truly distinguishes this chorizo is its deep, smoky flavor, enhanced by Spanish pimentón (paprika) and a harmonious blend of garlic and spices. These traditional seasonings add layers of complexity, making each bite an explosion of taste. The curing process ensures that the chorizo has a perfect texture—firm yet tender, with just the right amount of fat marbling to make it melt-in-your-mouth delicious.

This chorizo is shaped in the classic Sarta form, which makes it convenient for slicing and serving. Whether enjoyed on its own, paired with artisanal cheeses, or added to tapas, the Chorizo promises a sophisticated flavour experience. Redondo Iglesias, a trusted name in Spanish charcuterie, brings the heart of Spain's gastronomy to your table with this exceptional product.

A very good quality 100% Iberico de of bellota (acorn fed pigs), whole leg of ham, bone in. This is melt in the mouth quality ham, cured for an amazing 48 months to reach that depth of flavour and texture. 

Pata Negra is expensive due to its lengthy and costly production process. Best eaten on its own or as a tapa simply served in small, thin slices on a plate. The meat is deep red in colour and develops an intensely nutty flavor at room temperature, which is reminiscent of the acorns the pigs graze on throughout their lives.

The Iberian pig can get by for long periods with little to eat, which cultivates the finely marbled meat and its melt-in-the-mouth texture. Because the pigs have been fed with acorns, you can also notice little white points that often occur throughout the ham.

Amazing stuff.

Rosara’s Romesco Sauce is a bold, smoky Catalan classic that brings the flavours of the Mediterranean straight to your table. Made in Navarra, Spain, this artisanal sauce is crafted using traditional methods and high-quality ingredients: fire-roasted red peppers, ripe tomatoes, almonds, garlic, olive oil, and a touch of vinegar. The result is a rich, nutty, and slightly tangy sauce with layers of complexity and just the right hint of smokiness.

Often paired with grilled vegetables, fish, or meats, Romesco also makes a delicious dip for crusty bread or a punchy dressing for salads and grain bowls. Rosara’s version stands out for its authenticity—each jar offers a taste that’s true to its Catalan roots, without unnecessary additives or shortcuts.

Versatile and full of character, Rosara Romesco is a pantry essential for anyone looking to elevate simple meals with bold Spanish flavor. It’s ready to use straight from the jar, making it a quick solution for midweek dinners or last-minute entertaining. Whether spooned over roasted cauliflower, folded into pasta, or served alongside seafood, this sauce is a testament to Spain’s culinary ingenuity and Rosara’s commitment to quality. A little jar with big flavor.

These round white beans, known in Spain as “alubia manteca”, are one of Rosara’s most impressive examples of true artisanal legume craftsmanship. Each bean is cooked slowly and carefully so it becomes incredibly tender. The skin is barely noticeable, and the flavour is clean, pure, and deeply comforting. This is the kind of legume that transforms the simplest meal into something exceptional. Once you try Rosara’s beans, it is hard to go back to anything else.

Rosara prepares all their legumes using traditional methods, respecting the natural texture of the bean and adding nothing that distracts from its authentic taste. The result is a silky bean with a buttery mouthfeel, ideal for hearty stews, elegant tapas, or wholesome everyday cooking. Even the cooking liquid is valuable. It is rich, flavourful, and perfect for incorporating into soups and sautés.

These beans are delicate, so Rosara recommends handling them gently. Add them to your dish at the end of cooking and avoid excessive stirring. If you want to remove them from the jar more easily, warm the unopened jar briefly in a bain marie.
