A grilled & spicy sardine adventure for tinned fish savants. Led by Luigi Crescenzi, Manaide’s goal has been to bring back to Anzio the authenticity of local maritime tradition. Inspired by the ancient "manaide", or small rowing boats used for selective and sustainable fishing, the company has built a project that combines respect for the sea, craftsmanship and transparency. The fish is chosen according to the seasons, hand-processed as soon as it is comes ashore and preserved with natural methods – including hand-harvested whole salt, oak barrels & delicate extra virgin olive oil. FUN FACT! The name of the fishing vessel and the catch area appear on each jar, because each product tells its own unique and delicious story! Captured in Asturias and Rías Baixas, these hand cut sardines are grilled over wood fire and preserved in "escabeche" made with Arbequino extra virgin olive oil from Torre de Canena and ‘Acid for the House’ vinegar from Microbio Wines, with a gentle touch of guindilla pepper for added spice! A whole dish in itself, enjoy straight from the can. *CAUTION SPICY*
