Jose Gourmet - Smoked Sardines in EVOO

Traditional Portuguese smoked sardines preserved in rich extra virgin olive oil

These exceptional smoked sardines from Jose Gourmet showcase why Portuguese conservas have become so highly regarded by food lovers around the world. Carefully selected sardines are gently smoked to develop a rich, savoury depth of flavour before being preserved in quality extra virgin olive oil.

The smoking process adds an additional layer of complexity to the naturally rich, meaty character of the sardines, creating a balance of smoky, salty and umami flavours. The extra virgin olive oil not only preserves the fish perfectly but also contributes a smooth, luxurious texture that makes every bite deeply satisfying.

Whether enjoyed straight from the tin, served on toasted sourdough, paired with pickles and olives as part of a tapas spread, or added to a grazing board, these smoked sardines offer a simple yet sophisticated taste of Portugal's renowned seafood heritage.

Like all Jose Gourmet conservas, the focus is on exceptional ingredients, traditional production methods and beautiful presentation, making this a pantry staple that is equally at home in a gift hamper or on your own table.
