WHITE TUNA IN JAR WITH EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL (400g)
Frinsa
Frinsa's white tuna is caught one by one exclusively during the fishing season, which is famous in the north of Spain. This product is accompanied by an extra virgin olive oil based covering liquid, that enhances the flavor of the product and improves it over time.
This product is made with fresh tuna (not frozen), removing the meat upon entering the factory and immediately packed in the cans. This method efficiently preserves the quality of the meat, before it lands on your plate.
Frinsa only uses tuna caught from pole-and-line or trolling vessels, which supports their sustainability efforts as well as their initiative to provide healthy, delicious and high-quality tuna products to their consumers
