Sardines in Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil – Nutritious, Sustainable & Gourmet-Ready
What are these sardines
MAR sardines are wild-caught using traditional, sustainable methods and then packed by hand in certified organic extra virgin olive oil with a pinch of salt. Because they use whole fillets — not chunks — you receive intact, succulent sardines with full flavour and firm texture.
Why choose these sardines
These sardines come from sustainable fisheries that use dolphin-friendly purse-seine nets. Moreover, by using high-quality extra virgin olive oil, the product preserves the natural oils and nutrients of the fish while adding the healthy fats and antioxidant benefits associated with premium olive oil. As a result, this tin offers both convenience and nutritional value — excellent for anyone seeking wholesome, ready-to-eat seafood.
Health benefits & nutrition
Sardines provide heart-supportive nutrients, including long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, protein, calcium, vitamin D and essential minerals such as iron and selenium. Furthermore, regular consumption of oily fish may support cardiovascular health, reduce inflammation, enhance cognitive function and assist with strong bones and immunity.
Storage instructions
Store unopened tins in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, transfer any unused sardines with their olive oil into a sealed container and refrigerate. For best flavour and freshness, consume within a few days.
