Five tins, one story
Each month, five hand-picked tins from the canneries of Matosinhos, the Algarve and the Azores — plump sardines in olive oil, smoked, spiced, or in tomato. With tasting notes and the story of the house that packed them.
Straight from the source
We buy directly from family conserveiras — some canning by hand since the 1920s — and bring tins to America you won't find on any shelf here. Founded by a Portuguese-American who orders in Portuguese.
Worth its salt
Wild-caught, hand-packed, shelf-stable for years — and absurdly good on toast. High in protein and omega-3s, no preservatives, just fish, olive oil and sea salt.
The patron saint of your pantry
Tinned fish had its moment. Now it deserves a keeper. Saint Sardine is a monthly rite for people who know a great tin when they taste one — and for everyone about to find out.
