What are the key difference between the European Sardine and Australian Sardine?
The main key difference between European and Australian sardines lies in their geographical location and the characteristics of the waters they inhabit.European sardines, primarily found in the Atlantic Ocean, are often associated with cold currents and deep waters, contributing to their juicier texture and higher Omega-3 content.

"Wonderful selection of canned fish. I bought a number to put on Christmas stockings and the artwork on some of the tins is just beautiful. Delivery was fast and all the tins and boxes were well packed and arrived in perfect condition! Thank you. I would highly recommend your business to purveyors of fine tinned fish"

Which Country Has the Best Sardines?
When looking for the world's best tinned sardines, three countries consistently rank at the top: France, Spain, and Portugal.
-
France: often regarded as the gold standard for vintage sardines (sardines millésimées). French producers treat sardines like fine wine, allowing them to age in the tin to develop a complex, buttery texture.
-
Spain: Famous for artisanal craftsmanship, particularly from the Galician coast. Spanish sardines are celebrated for their meticulous hand-packing and premium olive oil pairings.
-
Portugal: Globally iconic for tradition and flavor. Portuguese sardines are praised for their robust taste and high Omega-3 content, attributed to the nutrient-rich waters of the Atlantic coastline where they are caught.
