### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Delicious plump whole sardines
*by P***L on April 29, 2026*

Great brand. Quality brand have purchased many times.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty good, but cooked in can versus cooked and then canned
*by B***Y on October 23, 2024*

Researching sardines and experimenting with many many varieties and types. Anyway, the pinhais company uses a cook then can method, and the difference is there are no juices with the oil surrounding the packed fish. It's a better preserved and mildly better tasting fish, especially after some time spent in the can (say you let them sit a year or so before eating). When cooked in the can, the fish releases juices that mix with the oil. This juice more or less slightly deteriorates the fish over time and reduces the flavor in comparison to those sardines not cooked in the can. Open a can of Nuri with Santo Amaro, and the differences, while subtle are noted. Pinhais also makes Pinhais brand as well as Nuri. Both these are cooked then canned. In order to meet fishery rules, fishing is limited to certain times of the year, and canners must take in extra fish and freeze them to keep active all year long (rather than work 3 months a year at 4x the current production capacity). Writing this to let readers know Pinhais brand are fresh sardines cooked then canned then sterilized in can. Nuri are frozen fish that are cooked then canned then sterilized. Santo Amaro are canned then cooked which also sterilizes. Both Nuri and Pinhais look the same, but there are mild textural differences between them. Nuri seems like the best deal. Pinhais seem very expensive for the additional benefit which is hard to distinguish, but I used several cans of each and opened at same time to get a good comparison. Pinhais can be at times almost twice as costly as Nuri, and Nuri at times can be almost twice as costly as Santo Amaro. I buy all three, but will go primarily with Nuri, and some Santo Amaro due to their lower pricing they can offer due to cooking in the can. Cooking outside the can requires ovens and racks and people to prep and cook then pack into can. So Santo Amaro offers a cheaper production process and less costly can of sardines. Santo Amaro are pretty good in comparison to most other sardines I buy, but I mentioned two brands above that are mildly better but more costly.
