Conservas Ortiz's Reserva di Familia Bonito del Norte tuna is aged in the tin for over a year. The extra "cellar" aging time allows the olive oil to transform the fish into something truly special—rich in tuna flavor with a smooth, supple texture and tender, flaky bite. 

Bonito del Norte tuna (white tuna)—one of renowned Spanish fish producers' best selling tinned fish—is prized for its rich, meaty texture and subtle briny flavor of the sea. These fish are sustainably line-caught, cooked in seawater and hand-packed in olive oil, all within a 24-hour period.

How to use

Family Reserve Bonito del Norte Tuna's flavor is stunning in the simplest of preparations. It is gorgeous piled on grilled slices of bread and garnished with an extra drizzle of Spanish extra virgin olive oil and a spritz of lemon or served on top of sliced boiled potatoes. Or for an effortless yet showstopping starter, toss the tuna and its olive oil with chickpeas and finish with thinly sliced spring onions, an extra drizzle of EVOO and fried capers. 

About the producer

For more than 100 years and through five generations, the Ortiz family has been committed to traditional, sustainable fishing and preserving techniques, achieving unparalleled flavor. To help protect the marine eco-system, the Conservas Ortiz fishermen line-catch every tuna individually in the Bay of Biscay off the coast of northern Spain. All Conservas Ortiz products, from anchovies to ventresca tuna, are carefully prepared and packed in olive oil so that, much like a fine wine, they actually improve over time.

Great quality and taste. To eat by itself with a piece of good bread and maybe with a little bit of fresh tomato with the bread or a simple salad of the tuna and the tomato.
