At Pujadó Solano, we know that life is made of experiences, and few are as authentic as delving into the world of artisanal preserves. That's why we want to invite you to live a unique gastronomic experience at our Santoña factory, where we carefully and traditionally prepare our Cantabrian anchovies, pickled anchovies, and Albacore tuna.
A guided tour designed to introduce our visitors to a millenary trade passed down from generation to generation, offering you the opportunity to discover firsthand how an exceptional quality anchovy is made, step by step.
The art of filleting: Much more than an anchovy
Many consumers enjoy Santoña anchovies, but few know everything that lies behind them: a history, a deep-rooted tradition, a commitment to sustainability, and above all, people. On this visit, we will show you the work of our "sobadoras" (filleters), women who, with skill and precision, select, clean, and fillet each piece by hand. Thanks to them, that unmistakable texture and flavor that distinguishes our Cantabrian anchovies are achieved.
We want you to understand the effort, care, and value behind each Pujadó Solano anchovy fillet. To learn about the origin of the raw material, caught in the Cantabrian Sea using sustainable fishing methods certified by the MSC label, and how, through a completely artisanal process, we ensure that the entire process respects the quality, flavor, and texture of the anchovies.
What does the experience include?
During the guided tour of our Santoña factory, we will show you our facilities and you will learn how we work, from the arrival of the fish to its final packaging. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to step into the shoes of our "sobadoras" and fillet an anchovy yourself. And to finish, you can taste all our specialties and discover their flavor and quality firsthand.
