Why it's worth it

Tinned sardines in olive oil are a genuine French gourmet tradition, and Connétable, a Breton cannery of over 150 years, hand-packs its fish and cans them within a day of the catch. Reviewers call them fresh, mild and firm; Czech canned fish are a different world, with no comparable olive-oil sardine on the shelf.

Taste

Whole sardines packed in olive oil; firm, mild and fresh-tasting, not overly fishy
