Ventresca, or belly, has long been considered the most desirable and valuable part of the tuna. Removed and processed separately from the rest of the fish it is cooked very gently to retain its texture and flavour.
It comes in long tender flakes whose high fat content give it a deliciously melting texture and mild but rich flavour.

Conservas Ortiz has been processing tuna and anchovies in Cantabria and the Basque Country, on the northern coast of Spain, for more than 120 years. Their business is centred on rod and line caught bonito and anchovies from the Bay of Biscay, which are still largely manually processed in their small factories.
Our standard delivery charge to Mainland UK postcodes is £4.50, excluding the Scottish Highlands and Northern Ireland. Orders received before 11:00 am can be despatched for delivery on the next working day, at an unspecified time between 8am and 6pm. Orders received after 11:00 am will be despatched on the next available delivery day after that unless a later date has been selected. We do not deliver Saturday to Monday, so orders received after 11:00 am on Thursdays cannot be despatched until after the weekend for delivery on the following Tuesday at the earliest.
In the checkout process you can select the day that you would like the order to be delivered from the
list of options (Tuesday to Friday). Orders can be placed up to 30 days in advance, or 60 during the Black Friday and Christmas period. You can also choose to designate a ’safe’ place (at your own risk) should no-one be at home to accept delivery. However, we cannot specify delivery times or request telephone calls from the driver.
We are currently unable to ship to Northern Ireland due to Brexit restrictions affecting our courier service.
For all postcodes included in the area designated by our third party courier as being within the Scottish Highlands our delivery charge is £14.95. Please remember that this is generally a 48-hour service and in some cases delivery can take up to 3 days after the delivery date selected online. For this reason it is advisable to consult a member of our sales team before placing the order. We offer free delivery to the
Scottish Highlands and Off Mainland UK on all orders over £100.
For all deliveries to Jersey & Guernsey, please place your orders with our agents, Fungi Delecti. Please note, we cannot ship directly. Orders received for these islands will not be dispatched & will be refunded. Orders placed with Fungi Delecti are usually delivered to Jersey addresses within 1-2 days, and Guernsey addresses once per week.”
