Calvisius presents a selection of the best delicacies from Europe and the world.
Processing anchovies in Cantabria, Spain, is still a traditional art, and our anchovies are produced and hand-packed according to time-honored methods. Sustainably caught with the “purse seine” method during spring harvest when the anchovy is close to the coast.
Upon arriving fresh to the processing facility, they are cleaned, placed in barrels with salt-layer separations and weighed to bring the water and fat to the surface. The fish undergoes a slow maturation process of at least 4 months, where the anchovy gets its pinkish hue and the appropriate aroma, and then it is washed, de-boned, and tinned with olive oil.
Calvisius Anchovies are from Spring harvest, characterized by a bright gray-green color, tasty flesh with a sweet flavor, aromatic, slightly bitter due to its fat.
Use anchovies as a source of savory “umami” flavor in your dishes – toss with pasta, mix into sauces, serve atop your Caesar salads, or on a toasted slice of bread with butter.

Customers praised these anchovies as "the BEST" with "superb" flavor and quality. Shoppers highlighted the "smooth and melt-in-your mouth" texture, beautiful presentation, and perfect saltiness. However, one customer experienced shipping issues with a thawed product despite paying premium delivery fees.
These are hands down the BEST anchovies. I ordered these for a pintxos party I hosted, and from the first crack of the can my mouth was watering. The presentation when you open the tin is beautiful, and you can see the difference hand packing makes. The smell is perfectly salty, umami, and rich; everything I hoped it would be. The fish plated beautifully and we couldn’t help but to eat straight the anchovies that didn’t go on the pintxos. The texture is smooth and melt-in-your mouth. Not too salty, but just the right amount of mouth watering richness that kept us wanting more. I will definitely be ordering these again, and so will my friends! Also, the customer service is top notch.
My product arrived thoroughly thawed having spent several days in transit. I paid a fancy sum for delivery and did not receive fancy delivery service. I have no doubts the product itself will be fine.
Dear Michael,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention — we are sorry to hear your order did not arrive in perfect condition.
Upon reviewing your case, we can see that a mechanical failure with the UPS vehicle was the cause of the delay and resulting damage. As you can imagine, circumstances like this are entirely beyond our control — our team had packed your order with great care, including extra ice packs, to ensure it arrived in perfect condition. Unfortunately, even the best precautions cannot account for carrier-side mechanical failures.
That said, your satisfaction matters deeply to us, and we would have loved the opportunity to make this right before you left your negative review — please know that our team is always just a message away and ready to help. We are happy to send you a replacement order right away, and we will notify you as soon as it is on its way.
Thank you for being a Calvisius customer — we look forward to delivering the experience you deserve.
Warm regards,
The Calvisius Team
