Frequently Asked Questions

What is a vintage sardine?
A vintage sardine is a tinned sardine with a vintage year shown on the tin. Information about the vintage is given on the product page and on the packaging.
What is the difference between the tin colours?
Only the colour changes. The tins contain the same recipe of vintage sardines in olive oil. You can simply choose the colour you prefer.
How long can a vintage sardine be kept?
Vintage sardines are made to be kept over time. Their distinctive feature is that they actually develop over the years: the flesh gradually takes up the oil and becomes more tender. To find out how long your tin will keep, refer to the best-before date shown on the packaging.
What do the vintage sardines taste like?
Our vintage sardines are prepared in olive oil. We recommend enjoying them simply, with bread, to appreciate the recipe at its best.
What is the use-by date for tinned sardines?
Tinned sardines keep for a long time. Our vintage sardines can be enjoyed several years after they were tinned, up to the best-before date shown on the packaging. Far from needing to be eaten quickly, vintage sardines are prized for the way they improve with age when kept in good conditions.
Can vintage sardines be given as a gift?
Yes. You can choose a colour, put several tins together, or pair them with other specialities from our savoury grocery range, such as rillettes, terrines or savoury biscuits.
