Explore the Essence of Galicia with Conservas de Cambados
Conservas de Cambados stands as a benchmark for gourmet seafood preserves in Spain, founded nearly four decades ago by José Luis Alfonso, a renowned mussel wholesaler. Today, the company is led by José’s children, Maite and Keko, who continue the tradition of small-batch, artisanal processing. Sourcing their seafood from various parts of Spain, Conservas de Cambados ensures peak freshness and exceptional quality in every tin. Skilled artisans, mostly women, meticulously process these delicacies in a small factory in Pontevedra, preserving the rich culinary heritage of Galicia.
The Rich Waters of Galicia: A Seafood Paradise
Located in northwest Spain, Galicia is known for the abundant marine life of the Ría de Arousa, one of the five main estuaries in the Rías Baixas. This nutrient-dense region is world-renowned for its exquisite clams, cockles, and mussels, which are grown in floating nurseries called "bateas." The flavors of this unique terroir are captured in every tin by Conservas de Cambados, providing an authentic taste of the sea.
A Commitment to Quality and Tradition
Combining artisanal quality with culinary tradition, Conservas de Cambados uses iconic packaging inspired by Galician seafood nets, reflecting their dedication to heritage and excellence. Their Small Sardines in Olive Oil are a perfect example—each tin offers a sublime experience with beautiful flavor, texture, and appearance that opens your eyes to the world of Spanish sardines.
