How long does shipping take?
All orders ship via USPS Ground Advantage (2–5 business days) or USPS Priority Mail (1–3 business days). You'll receive a tracking notification the day your order leaves us.
Do you ship to Canada?
Yes. Canadian orders ship at a flat rate of $14.95 and typically arrive in 5–10 business days. Customs duties may apply.
How long does tinned fish last?
Most of our tins have a shelf life of 3–5 years. Some vintage sardines are designed to be aged and they genuinely improve over time. The best-by date is printed on every tin.
Do I need to refrigerate it?
No. Tinned fish is shelf-stable and requires no refrigeration until opened. Once opened, transfer any unused portion to a covered container and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
Why don't you sell individual tins?
We're a small shop just starting out, and right now every box is built to be an experience. As we grow, we'd like to offer favorites individually too. If you know which tin you love, email us. We're small enough to remember that kind of thing.
When will you expand your selection?
We curate slowly and on purpose. Every tin in our lineup has been tasted, researched, and chosen for a reason. We'd rather offer six exceptional products than sixty forgettable ones. That said, we're always exploring new producers and fishing regions, and we will be adding to the collection when we find something genuinely worth sharing. The best way to hear about new arrivals first is to join our list.
