FROM THE SEA TO THE JAR
In Sciacca, Italy’s 4th largest port, a maritime story flows through our veins—a millennia-old tradition that embraces the grandeur of our fleet and the richness of our catch. And there’s an extraordinary way to dive into this story, which we believe is the best way: doing it in the company of a family that has dedicated four generations to the brilliant bluefish of our sea.
With them, you’ll have the chance to experience an extraordinary journey that follows the rhythm of the sea and nature. You will discover how the fish is processed, salted, and preserved, and you’ll be carried away by the passion and mastery of those who have dedicated their entire lives to this noble art.
But you won’t be alone on this journey. Alongside the Curreri family will be all those men and women who, with strength and dedication, have been doing this work their whole lives. They will share their stories, their experiences, and their deep connection with the sea.
We invite you to join us on this passionate and authentic journey, where each anchovy fillet becomes a piece of Sicily to savor and love. You’ll be part of a millennia-old tradition that still lives and pulses today, and you’ll discover the true meaning of Sciacca, its sea-bound heart.
