Salanort Anchovies come from the Engraulis Encrasicholus species fished off the Cantabrico coast, a very special delicacy well differentiated from other species of anchovies. Cantabrico anchovies arrive to the Bay of Biscay in spring. It is a fish with a pleasant, mild and creamy taste, resulting in part from its nature as a cold water fish. From a healthy diet point of view, cardiologists, dietitians and nutritionists recommend eating anchovies and other oily fish, knowing that their particular fat composition, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, helps to prevent vascular diseases. At Basco we have selected the best Spanish anchovies from Salanort, one of the most traditional canning companies located in the Basque fishing village of Getaria outside San Sebastian.
