MENU
TUNA STARTERS
Since 2016, Tunipex started his bluefin tuna harvesting in the Algarve region, in the south of Portugal.
The specialty of his company is the speed between catching the tuna and its freezing; only 3 hours pass from when the tuna is caught to when it is frozen at -60 degrees.
The size of his tunas also allows us to have more different cuts available compared to Italian tunas.
We have been working with him for almost 3 years, and by sharing all the details of his farming practices, he gives us the opportunity to work with lesser-known parts of the tuna in Italy.
Imported exclusively for Bentoteca by Tunipex.
