Caviar de Erizo, or sea urchin caviar, from Los Peperetes is a delicacy featuring the roe of sea urchins, highly prized for its unique umami-rich, briny flavor. This product is sustainably harvested along the Spanish coast and carefully processed to preserve its delicate texture and intense taste.
Founded by Jesús Lorenzo in the 1990s, the Los Peperetes is celebrated for its commitment to traditional, artisanal methods that enhance the natural flavors of its seafood. Known for products like octopus, razor clams, mussels, and sardines, Los Peperetes sources locally from the Galician coast, where the seafood is cleaned, cooked, and packed by hand.
