Deep roots tie the Testa family to fishing and to the little fishing village of Ognina, in Sicily, which is where Tuna Bag

Tuna Bag

was born: the family's history goes back at least two centuries, and in the village there is still a street named after them. Fishing for  bluefin tuna is a true passion and demands precision, and it takes place in only thirty days a year. Bluefin tuna is a  protected marine species, and its catch is regulated by ICCAT quotas, which limit the catch by number and weight. Thanks to this, the Mediterranean is being repopulated with this species.

Bluefin Tuna Fishing

The bluefin tuna arrive in the Mediterranean in April, passing from the ocean through the Strait of Gibraltar. The fishing season is concentrated in 30 days between May and June. The tuna caught with purse seine nets are quickly transferred and placed in large pens in the sea off Sicily, where they are fed only on oily fish (herring and sardines), so as to give their meat the best properties: a high content of unsaturated fats and omega-3. A very rapid process follows: in 4 minutes the tuna goes from the sea to deep-freezing at minus 70°C.
Fishing, preservation and processing all take place within a circular supply chain owned by the company. This guarantees a high standard of quality. Every jar of preserves bears the BCD number (Bluefin Tuna Catch Document), a sort of “identity card” for bluefin tuna that guarantees its traceability from sea to table. Its firmness, flavour and nutritional values make bluefin tuna a true delicacy.

A bag with a heart of the sea, designed for those who love authentic flavours and the finest produce of the sea. Perfect as a gift idea or to take with you on a journey, it contains the Testa triptych, a selection of the finest wild bluefin tuna specialities.

Inside, prized cuts of fillet and belly, accompanied by tasty buzzonaglia, all preserved in Sicilia IGP extra virgin olive oil. A meeting of quality, tradition and taste, ideal for treating yourself to a refined tasting on any occasion.
