Atun Claro (Yellowfin Tuna) - 1.8kg

Olasagasti Atún Claro in Extra Virgin Olive Oil – 1.8kg

Artisan-quality tinned tuna is still relatively new to Australian palates but has long been celebrated as a delicacy in Spain. This atún claro (yellowfin tuna) is prized for its delicate pink flesh and clean, mild flavour. Sourced from small, family-owned fishing boats off the Cantabrian coast near San Sebastián, each fish is caught using sustainable methods and processed entirely by hand.

Preserved in high-quality Spanish extra virgin olive oil, the result is an exceptionally tender tuna that’s ready to eat straight from the tin. It’s ideal for mixing through pasta, topping salads, or layering into gourmet sandwiches. Equally at home in breakfast, lunch, or dinner applications, this product is a chef’s pantry essential.
