World's 101 Best Canned Products from the Sea - Top 10 Tuna
2024
The Ventresca de Bonito en Aceite de Oliva from Los Peperetes is a premium Spanish delicacy made from the tender belly cuts of Bonito del Norte, a prized variety of Atlantic tuna. This portion of the tuna, known for its exceptional softness and rich flavor, is preserved in high-quality olive oil to enhance its taste and maintain its texture.
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.
