From the Estuaries of Galicia, Spain, comes the most wonderful small sardines in tomato sauce we have ever tried. This is a true Spanish food gem and we are very pleased to be able to offer it to you. Rich in vitamins D and B12, they are also an excellent source of calcium and omega-3 fatty acids. The Spanish believe canned seafood is a delicacy to be shared and enjoyed! They take great pride, and great care, to harvest the best seafood and package it with the utmost care. The result is the purest, most delicate, and exquisite tasting seafood on the planet! A true delicacy.

Do not be fooled by other sardines. “Conservas de Cambados” makes a "Gourmet" line, which is their highest quality. "Gourmet" is clearly at the top of the front label as shown in the photo, the "Conservas de Cambados" logo is prominently displayed, and the tin is rectangular with rounded corners. The seas off the coast of Galicia in Northwest Spain are cool and rich in nutrients, making them an incredible fishing ground. Their facilities are very close to where the seafood is harvested, so they are able to use the freshest fish and shellfish available.

We have never tried a sardine more delicate and mild than those of Galicia. They are harvested in small batches from the cool waters of the Rias, tidal rivers in north western Spain. The result is a tender, mild sardine, with the delicate taste of the sea but without any strong fishy flavors.

La Curiosa Sardines with Lemon in Olive Oil (Sardinas con Limón en Aceite de Oliva) offer a bright, citrusy twist on a beloved Galician classic. Harvested from the cool Atlantic waters, these sardines are hand-selected for their quality and texture, then delicately steamed and packed in extra virgin olive oil with a touch of natural lemon. The result is a conserva that’s fresh, balanced, and bursting with character.

The lemon adds a subtle lift to the sardines’ natural richness, bringing a gentle zing that enhances rather than overwhelms. It’s a perfect harmony—the soft, savoury fish meets the bright, aromatic citrus, all wrapped in smooth Spanish olive oil. Whether enjoyed straight from the tin or as part of a larger dish, this pairing feels clean, modern, and effortlessly Mediterranean.

As with all of La Curiosa’s conservas, the preparation is done by hand, following traditional methods, and the presentation is both elegant and playful—designed to appeal to a new generation of seafood lovers who value both quality and creativity.

Serve these lemon-scented sardines on warm sourdough or crackers, in a fresh salad with herbs and fennel, or flaked through pasta with a little garlic and parsley. They also shine as a light tapa with a crisp glass of white wine or vermouth on ice.

For those who enjoy their conservas with a hint of citrus brightness, La Curiosa Sardines with Lemon in Olive Oil are a refreshing and refined take on a time-honoured tradition—clean, vibrant, and undeniably delicious.

La Curiosa Spicy Sardines in Olive Oil (Sardinas Picantes en Aceite de Oliva) take the timeless Galician conserva and turn up the heat—just enough to awaken the palate without overpowering the delicate flavour of the fish. These sardines are caught off the cold, clean waters of the Galician coast, chosen for their ideal size and freshness, then prepared using traditional methods that honour the region’s rich culinary heritage.

Once steamed and cleaned by hand, the sardines are gently packed in high-quality Spanish olive oil infused with chilli. The result is a tin bursting with bold, balanced flavour: the natural umami of the sardines complemented by the warmth of the oil and a gentle kick of spice that lingers on the tongue. It’s a moreish, mouth-tingling twist on a classic, with just the right amount of fire.

As always, La Curiosa pairs artisanal quality with playful, stylish presentation—offering conservas that are as visually appealing as they are delicious. Their approach combines respect for traditional Galician seafood with a modern flair that makes each tin feel special.

Enjoy these spicy sardines on their own with crusty bread, layered over grilled vegetables, or tossed through a simple pasta with garlic and herbs. They also add a fantastic depth of flavour to rice dishes or make a standout tapa paired with a crisp Albariño or an ice-cold beer.

For those who love their conservas with a bit of heat, La Curiosa Spicy Sardines in Olive Oil offer a fiery, flavour-packed journey into the heart of Galicia—bold, vibrant, and utterly irresistible.

La Curiosa Sardines in Olive Oil (Sardinas en Aceite de Oliva) are a beautiful expression of Galician tradition, elevated through a modern lens. Sourced from the cold Atlantic waters off the coast of Galicia, these sardines are selected for their freshness, size, and flavour—only the best catch makes it into each tin. Once landed, they’re cleaned by hand, lightly steamed, and carefully packed in high-quality Spanish olive oil to preserve their delicate texture and enhance their natural richness.

These sardines are plump, tender, and full of character, with a clean, slightly briny taste that speaks of the sea. The olive oil not only protects and preserves but also mellows and deepens the flavour, allowing the sardines to develop beautifully in the tin over time. It’s a classic pairing—sardines and olive oil—but one that La Curiosa executes with exceptional finesse.

What makes La Curiosa stand out is their dedication to artisanal methods and creative presentation. Each tin is not just packed with care but presented with a touch of whimsy and design flair that reflects the brand’s commitment to quality and craft.

La Curiosa Sardines with Padrón Peppers in Olive Oil (Sardinas con Pimientos de Padrón en Aceite de Oliva) offer a bold, unmistakably Galician twist on a classic. This inventive conserva brings together two local icons from the region’s Atlantic coast: plump, tender sardines and the famed Padrón pepper—mild, green, and slightly smoky, with the occasional hint of heat.

Hand-selected from the day’s catch, the sardines are gently steamed to preserve their flaky texture and natural flavour. They’re then paired with small slices of roasted Padrón peppers and packed in silky olive oil, allowing the subtle vegetal sweetness and slight char of the peppers to infuse the fish. The result is a beautifully balanced tin—soft, savoury sardines lifted by the earthy brightness of the pepper, with just the faintest suggestion of spice.

As with all La Curiosa conservas, this tin is a celebration of craftsmanship and creativity. The fish are handled with care, the ingredients are thoughtfully paired, and the packaging is fresh and modern—making it a perfect choice for curious palates and lovers of elevated tinned seafood.

Enjoy it simply with crusty bread and a squeeze of lemon, flake it into a salad of greens and white beans, or pair with roasted potatoes for a Galician-inspired small plate. It also makes an excellent tapa alongside a chilled glass of Godello or a light Spanish lager.

La Curiosa Sardines with Padrón Peppers is more than a clever pairing—it’s a delicious snapshot of Galicia in a tin: flavourful, fresh, and wonderfully original.

Product details

Siesta Small Sardines in Yuzu Koshō bring together two remarkable culinary traditions in one beautifully balanced tin. Sustainably sourced from the pristine waters of Northern Spain, these tender small sardines are carefully hand-packed in premium organic extra virgin olive oil and delicately infused with yuzu koshō – the celebrated Japanese seasoning made from fragrant yuzu citrus peel, green peppers, and sea salt. The result is a unique conserva that feels both authentically Spanish and refreshingly modern.

The sardines themselves are wonderfully delicate, with a soft texture and clean, rich flavour that only premium-quality fish can deliver. Rather than overwhelming the natural character of the seafood, the yuzu koshō adds bright citrus aromas, subtle herbal notes, and a gentle peppery warmth that lingers pleasantly on the palate. The organic olive oil ties everything together, contributing a silky richness while allowing every flavour to shine in harmony.

This is a tin designed for adventurous food lovers as much as traditional conserva enthusiasts. Enjoy the sardines straight from the can with a crisp glass of Albariño or sparkling wine, or serve them atop warm sourdough, steamed rice, or a fresh green salad. They also make an exceptional addition to sushi-inspired dishes, grain bowls, or pasta, where their citrusy brightness can elevate even the simplest ingredients.
