Deep roots tie the Testa family to fishing and to the small Sicilian fishing village of Ognina: this is where the Testa Collection gift box comes from.

Testa Collection

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

Bluefin Tuna Fishing

Bluefin tuna arrive in the Mediterranean in April, passing from the ocean through the Strait of Gibraltar. The fishing season is concentrated into 30 days between May and June. The tuna, caught with purse seine nets, are quickly transferred and placed in large pens in the Sicilian sea, where they are fed only on oily fish (herring and sardines) so as to give their flesh the best properties. They have 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°.
Fishing, preservation and processing 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 the bluefin tuna that guarantees its traceability from sea to table. Its firm texture, flavour and nutritional values make bluefin tuna a true delicacy.
A journey through the authentic flavours of the Sicilian sea, where tradition, quality and artisan craftsmanship come together in a selection of fine seafood specialities.
The collection brings together the best of the seafaring tradition: bluefin tuna fillets and belly, intensely flavoured buzzonaglia, anchovies and mackerel, skilfully prepared by hand and preserved in fine Sicilia IGP extra virgin olive oil.
A rich and refined assortment, designed for those who wish to rediscover all the character of the sea through authentic flavours and quality ingredients. Perfect for creating tasty starters, enriching your own recipes or treating yourself to a special tasting.
