Deep roots tie the Testa family to fishing and to the small Sicilian fishing village of Ognina, and it is here that the Bluefin Tuna Fillets in extra virgin olive oil are produced

Bluefin Tuna Fillets in extra virgin olive oil

the family's history dates back at least two centuries; even today there is a street named after them in the village. Bluefin tuna fishing is a true passion requiring precision, and it takes place in just thirty days a year. The company's commitment is especially evident in the catching of bluefin tuna. Bluefin tuna is in fact a protected marine species, and its catch is regulated by ICCAT quotas which limit catches by number and weight. Thanks to this, the Mediterranean is repopulating with this 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 in 30 days between May and June. Once caught with purse-seine nets, the tuna are quickly placed in large tanks in the Sicilian sea. They are fed only oily fish (herring and sardines) so as to guarantee the best qualities in their flesh. A high content of unsaturated fats and omega-3. This is followed by a very fast process: in 4 minutes the tuna goes from the sea to freezing at minus 70°. Fishing, storage 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 shows 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 firmness, flavour and nutritional values make bluefin tuna a true delicacy.
