Tricana I 3 Sardines Tins Gift Box

3 tins that let you discover the fantastic Portuguese sardine preserves from the Tricana brand — the iconic sardine tins traditionally sold in the small century-old grocery store near Lisbon’s Praça do Comércio.

The exceptional quality of these preserves comes from using real and authentic Atlantic sardines, the “Pilchardus” sardines. It also comes from the traditional Portuguese preparation method: each sardine is selected and prepared by hand, one by one, lightly pre-cooked, then canned in its flavorful sauce.

Why I love it

• The freshness of the sardines, noticeable as soon as you open the tin.
• Their texture — both firm and melt-in-your-mouth.
• The delightfully retro and truly Portuguese packaging design.
• Perfect for sharing as an appetizer with friends.

Tricana preserves are among the most renowned outside Portugal, and everyone knows the charming century-old grocery store hidden just behind Lisbon’s Praça do Comércio, unchanged since 1942.

These unique preserves have resisted trends and competition simply by maintaining the values instilled by Fernando da Silva Ferreira in 1942: rejecting mass production, rigorously selecting authentic ingredients, and preserving traditional methods.
