This tuna makes all others seem like flavorless moist sawdust. The texture and flavor of both the fish and the oil is exceptional. I don't waste even a drop of the oil.

After eating this tuna my husband was inspired to try to preserve tuna in a jar. Despite having high quality tuna and a good recipe, the homemade version was inedible in comparison to the Ortiz jar of tuna. I don't know how they make it or where all the wonderful flavor comes from, but this is the only tuna I am willing to buy now.

I hate the high price but the tuna is YUM! I crush the fillets into the oil in the jar and eat just a bit (1 oz)as an agent to flavor a high quality bread. The result is a delicious satisfying sandwich that isn't that expensive after all when eaten this way. The oil is not to be wasted and it isn't to be used as cheap fish. It is more flavorful, tender and delicious.

I bought this in the hope of having some excellent tuna, what I received was comparable to any canned tuna in olive oil available in any market.
