Albacore tuna in olive oil

The albacore or white tuna doesn’t grow very big, but it makes up for it in nutritional value: because it eats mostly sardines and anchovies, it’s packed with omega 3 fatty acids. Providing you care-and guilt free enjoyment. This type with added olive oil is nice and soft - and because it’s tinned, you can store it for quite some time.

Origin

Our white tuna hails from San Diego, a sunny metropole in the American state of California. If you ship out to the Pacific Ocean from the harbour, you’ll be far away from life as you know it in no-time. Not only can you find albacore tuna here, but also bluefin-, yellowfin- and bigeye tuna.

Fishing method

Jack and his men fish with a rod. Before they get started, they tie a rope around their waist and attach it to the boat, so they won’t go overboard when the fish pull too hard.

When the fishermen spot a school of tuna, they throw live little fish overboard. This helps to draw the tuna’s attention - and eventually draws in the tuna. The great way about this traditional method is that the fishermen only catch tuna fish. So there’s no bycatch nor damage to nature.
