Los Peperetes Percebes (Gooseneck Barnacles) are one of the true delicacies of the Galician coast—rare, dramatic, and utterly unforgettable. Harvested by hand from the wave-battered rocks of the Atlantic shoreline, percebes are not just seafood; they’re an adventure, a testament to the bravery of the percebeiros who risk life and limb to collect them at low tide.
Peperetes captures the essence of this wild delicacy in each carefully packed tin. The barnacles are cooked simply in seawater, preserving their pure, saline flavour and distinctive texture. The result is intensely oceanic—briny, slightly sweet, with a deep mineral richness that evokes crashing waves and rugged coastlines. There’s nothing quite like it.
Each tin is prepared with the utmost care, selecting only the finest specimens and preserving their natural appearance and texture. Though traditionally eaten fresh, Los Peperetes has perfected the technique of canning percebes without compromising their character—making this a rare opportunity to try one of Spain’s most elusive seafood treasures in the comfort of your own home.
This conserva is best enjoyed simply: opened and served at room temperature, perhaps with a glass of Albariño or a crisp Manzanilla to complement its maritime character. The flavour is so striking, it needs no accompaniment—just curiosity and a sense of occasion.
Recognised with accolades for its commitment to quality and authenticity, Los Peperetes continues to set the benchmark for premium conservas. Their Percebes are a shining example of how tradition, craftsmanship, and nature come together in one small, extraordinary tin.
For the adventurous palate or the curious foodie, Peperetes Percebes offer a true taste of the Atlantic—raw, refined, and absolutely unforgettable.
