TINNED FISH MANIA: These canned goods aren’t just for survivalists—they’re luxury imports, souvenirs, and collectibles. We’ve reached an age, as Eater has pointed out, where Americans are willing to spend $45 on a tiny tin of conservas (as they’re often called in Spain and Portugal) to snack on while they sip their wine. Bon Appétit is suggesting them as all-purpose stocking stuffers. Tinned, canned, jarred, preserved: these sea creatures are a pantry must-have. And Tin to Table shows you how to use them all!

ONE-OF-A-KIND CANNED FISH COOKBOOK: Whether you are exploring a pescatarian diet or simply broadening your cooking horizons, this unique guide covers a wide variety of tinned seafood rather than focusing solely on a single ingredient such as sardines or salmon. Full-color photographs showcase mouthwatering dishes while playful illustrations round out the fun foodie vibe throughout.

SUSTAINABLE COOKING IN A CAN: In an age of conscious consumerism, canned seafood can offer transparency about sourcing, fishing methods, sustainability, and mercury levels that can be difficult or impossible to trace among the fresh seafood at the supermarket. As more and more home cooks cut down on their meat consumption out of concern for the environment, canned fish offers a happy alternative, packed full of protein and omega–3s. Its convenience, nutritional value, and long shelf life don’t hurt either!

Perfect for:Home cooks, college students, picnickers, and seafood lovers A great host gift or self-purchase for those who enjoy entertaining An educational and practical resource for sustainable cooking enthusiasts Pairing with a specialty tin of fish to create a memorable birthday, holiday, or special occasion gift for foodies and cookbook collectors

Tío Uco 2023 from Alvar de Dios Hernández is a beautifully expressive red that brings the wild heart of Castilla y León straight to your glass. Made mostly from old-vine Tempranillo and a touch of Garnacha, grown organically in the high-altitude, sandy soils of El Pego in the comarca of Guareña, this wine is all about purity and place.

 

On the nose, expect vivid aromas of red cherry, raspberry, dried herbs, and crushed flowers. On the palate, it’s juicy and fresh, with fine tannins, a gentle earthiness, and a mineral backbone that reflects the granite and quartz in the soil. It’s medium-bodied and unoaked, allowing the fruit to shine with clarity and lift. The finish is long, clean, and quietly complex.

 

Alvar de Dios is part of a wave of winemakers redefining the wines of inland Spain—focusing on organic farming, low intervention, and forgotten old vineyards. Tío Uco is his most approachable bottling, but it’s far from simple. It captures a sense of place that’s honest, rustic, and full of energy.

 

Pair it with grilled vegetables, roast chicken, charcutería, or lentil stew—this is a food-friendly red with soul and structure. Serve slightly cool to bring out its liveliness.

 

Only a limited number of bottles are available in Ontario. A perfect intro to one of Spain’s most exciting young producers.

At Spanish Pig, we’re delighted to offer an exceptional tasting experience for lovers of fine cured meats: the Monte Nevado Jamón Trio. This exclusive set brings together three of Spain’s most iconic hams, each hand-carved to order for perfect texture and flavour.

The journey begins with 100g of Serrano ham, cured for 24 months—a beautifully balanced ham with delicate saltiness and a tender, savoury profile. Next is 100g of Iberico de Cebo, cured for two years. Richer and deeper in flavour, this ham offers that signature Iberico nuttiness and marbled texture that lingers on the palate. Finally, the crown jewel: 100g of Iberico de Bellota, acorn-fed and cured for an incredible four years. Intensely aromatic, buttery, and complex, this is jamón at its most exquisite.

Individually, these hams would cost $130—but we’re offering this beautifully curated trio for just $99, making it an ideal introduction to the diversity of Spain’s cured ham tradition, or a luxurious gift for any gourmet.

All three are produced by Monte Nevado, one of Spain’s most respected ham houses, and carved by hand here at Spanish Pig for a truly artisanal finish.

A true Spanish Christmas classic, Turrón de Jijona is the wonderfully soft, creamy counterpart to the crunchy turrón of Alicante. Made by AntiuXixona in Jijona (Xixona), Alicante—the historic heartland of Spanish turrón—this traditional sweet is all about the rich, unmistakable flavour of toasted almonds.

Unlike hard turrón, Jijona is made by finely grinding toasted almonds together with honey and sugar until they release their natural oils, creating its characteristic soft, almost melt-in-the-mouth texture. The result is intensely nutty and aromatic, with the sweetness of honey balancing the deep roasted flavour of the almonds.

This turrón carries the Jijona DOP (Protected Designation of Origin), which protects both its geographical origin and its traditional method of production. Genuine Turrón de Jijona must be produced within the designated area around Jijona in Alicante and meet the standards established for this celebrated Spanish confection.

AntiuXixona is one of the best-known names associated with traditional turrón production in Jijona, continuing a confectionery tradition that has made this small Alicante town synonymous with turrón throughout Spain.

Traditionally enjoyed during Christmas and the festive season, Turrón de Jijona is served simply: cut into small pieces and shared after a meal alongside coffee, cava, sweet wine or a glass of brandy. Its rich almond flavour also makes it excellent crumbled over ice cream or incorporated into desserts.

Product highlights:
• Authentic Turrón de Jijona from Alicante, Spain

• Traditional soft and creamy turrón blando
• Rich toasted-almond and honey flavour
• Smooth, delicate, melt-in-the-mouth texture

For anyone who grew up with Spanish Christmas traditions, this is a taste of the holidays. For those discovering turrón for the first time, Jijona is an excellent place to start—rich, almondy, beautifully soft and unmistakably Spanish.

Txakoli Katalin Iturzaeta is a beautifully crafted white wine from the prestigious Getariako Txakolina D.O. in Spain’s Basque Country. Produced in the coastal town of Getaria by the Aranzabal family, this exceptional wine pays tribute to their great-great-grandmother, Katalin Iturzaeta, whose determination and passion for viticulture laid the foundations for generations of winemaking. Today, the family continues that legacy by producing a small quantity of handcrafted Txakoli from vineyards overlooking the Bay of Biscay, where the Atlantic climate and steep hillside vineyards create ideal conditions for fresh, vibrant wines.

Made primarily from the indigenous Hondarrabi Zuri grape with a small proportion of Hondarrabi Beltza, the wine is fermented and aged on its lees for several months, adding texture and complexity while softening the naturally bright acidity associated with traditional Txakoli. The result is a wine that balances freshness with elegance, offering remarkable depth without losing its lively character.

In the glass, it displays a pale golden-yellow colour with brilliant reflections. Aromas of green apple, citrus zest, white flowers and grapefruit mingle with subtle herbal notes and a delicate hint of sea breeze. The palate is crisp and refreshing, featuring lively acidity, gentle mineral salinity and a faint natural spritz that enhances its energy. The finish is long, clean and beautifully balanced, making each sip irresistibly refreshing.

Txakoli Katalin Iturzaeta is an outstanding partner for oysters, mussels, grilled fish, sushi, shellfish, fresh salads and Basque-style pintxos. Best served well chilled, it captures the essence of the Atlantic coast in every glass and is a superb introduction to one of Spain's most distinctive and characterful white wine styles.

Bring a piece of Galicia to your table with our Typical Galician Pine Wood Plate in the very small 14 cm size. These traditional plates are a staple in northern Spain, especially in the iconic dish pulpo a la gallega, where tender octopus is served on warm pine to enhance its aroma and texture. Crafted from natural pine wood and finished to highlight the grain, each plate carries the rustic charm of Spanish taverns and pulperías.

Lightweight yet sturdy, this plate is perfect for sharing tapas at home. Use it for sliced chorizo, jamón, cheeses, olives or anchovies, or recreate authentic Galician octopus exactly as it is served across Spain. The shallow format and gentle curvature help juices stay contained, making it both practical and beautiful on any table.

Because pine is naturally porous, these plates are best used for dry or lightly sauced dishes. A quick hand wash and thorough air dry keep them looking their best. Over time, the wood develops character from the dishes you serve, giving it the lived in patina that defines true Spanish hospitality.

A simple plate with a long tradition, ready to bring an authentic Spanish touch to your home through Spanish Pig.

Vermouth Cueva Nueva is a characterful Spanish vermouth rooted in tradition yet crafted for modern palates. Built on a quality wine base and fortified with a carefully guarded blend of botanicals, it delivers layered aromatics of sweet spice, bitter orange peel, wild herbs, and a subtle balsamic edge. On the palate, it balances gentle sweetness with structured bitterness, finishing long and herbal with a whisper of cinnamon and clove. It is expressive without being overpowering, making it equally suited to slow sipping or cocktail use.

Serving Suggestions

1. The Classic Spanish Serve
Pour over plenty of ice in a wide glass, add a slice of orange and a green olive. A splash of soda can lighten it for afternoon drinking.

2. With a Twist of Lemon
If you prefer brighter acidity, swap orange for lemon peel and add a dash of sparkling water.

3. Vermouth & Tonic
Equal parts vermouth and premium tonic over ice, finished with rosemary or a thin slice of grapefruit.

4. In Cocktails
Ideal for a Negroni or Manhattan-style drink, where its herbal depth adds complexity without overwhelming the base spirit.

Serve chilled and never rushed.

Located in the picturesque village of Val do Salnés, Attis Bodegas y Viñedos is a testament to turning bold dreams into successful ventures. Originally grape growers, the family took a leap of faith in 2000 to craft their own wines, a decision that has paid off splendidly ever since.

Nestled amidst the lush landscape, their vineyards span 5 hectares, each plot meticulously tended with care. The soils, a blend of loam and sandy textures, bear the unmistakable imprint of the nearby Atlantic Ocean, lending a unique character to the grapes.

Crafted with precision, their Albariño boasts a vibrant profile, brimming with notes of lemon zest, grapefruit pulp, and luscious ripe peach. A subtle minerality, reminiscent of crushed rock, dances on the palate, leading to a finish accented with hints of bitter almond and white pepper.
