Antarctic Royal Seafood | South Australia

Port Lincoln Sardine Garum is a premium Australian condiment crafted in the traditional Roman style. Fermented naturally for over 12 months, this umami-rich seasoning delivers extraordinary depth, complexity, and savoury intensity. Made from 100% Australian sardines, sustainably harvested using Purse Seine methods from the pristine waters of the Spencer Gulf—Australia’s only sardine garum, available exclusively through Fino Foods.

Tasting Notes

• Umami Core: Intense, savoury umami from natural glutamates released during long fermentation
• Briny Salinity: Clean, oceanic saltiness that is nuanced and mineral-driven
• Fermented Depth: Deep, aged complexity akin to aged miso or Parmigiano-Reggiano rind
• Subtle Sweetness: Faint sweetness naturally developed during protein breakdown
• Rich Finish: Lingering, mouth-coating finish that enhances other ingredients
• No Fishiness: Clean, refined savoury profile—nothing like lower-end fish sauces

About the Producer

Antarctic Royal Seafood is focused on creating premium value from one of Australia's most underutilised seafood resources: sardines. After discovering a traditionally produced sardine fish sauce in Port Lincoln, they repositioned it as a premium, 12-month-fermented garum for modern kitchens. UMARA Dust was then developed in collaboration with SARDI (the South Australian Research and Development Institute), combining South Australian seafood, scientific research and a culinary tradition dating back more than two thousand years. The sardines are sustainably harvested from the waters of Spencer Gulf, and the full UMARA range is 100% Australian made.
