Flower Brand Spiced Sardines (Olive Oil) 4.38 oz, Wild-Caught from Morocco, High Protein, Keto&Gluten Free Food, Keto Snacks, Canned Food Bulk Sardines in Oil (Pack of 5)

These are the tastiest sardines I’ve ever had. The fish are a very good size. I didn’t notice any bones. Maybe this is why they are slightly dry, but not enough to deduct a star. They are packed in olive oil and infused with delicious spices. In the tin with the fish was whole cloves, peppercorns, bay leaf, red chile pepper, a slice of carrot and a slice of what looks like a jalapeno. These combine to make a delicious, spicy marinade and give the sardines a delicious flavor. Not hot, just a really nice flavor. These will be my new go-to sardine brand. I had one brand, Chicken of the Sea, that were awful. These are nothing like that brand.

Those sardines are delicious, with all the spices inside it gives a complex taste that is totally different from the average sardines. When I eat them I eat 2 cans at a time, nice breakfast....And good price also....!!

I bought these to compare to Nuri's Spiced Sardines which are like the industry standard for quality and value. I think on Amazon these are a bit too expensive and would recommend shelling out the extra dollar for a tin of Nuri's. Currently with 5 sardines for $18 that's $3.60 while Nuris if you buy them in a 10 pack are roughly $4.60. I think these are quite a solid contender against Nuri's if you can find them locally or cheaper. I've purchased them at specific markets for like $2 and at that price I'd be eating them more frequently. On the sardines themselves; they can have the occasional scale so be careful. They aren't the most visually appealing tin but I don't judge a book by its cover. The oil is pretty well flavored but unlike Nuri's I don't think I'd sop it up with bread. It does have a good flavor, I wouldn't say they are too spicy even as a midwesterner. The fish has a pretty good texture and holds together well. They aren't unpleasantly fishy, with a clean smell, and are nicely meaty. I found the cans easy to open but it's very rare for me to meet a tin I have trouble with. Overall they're an above average sardine! I would never turn down a tin of Flower's sardines but if shopping on amazon I would pay the extra $1 a tin and go for Nuri's.

These are fantastic. I wanted something high-quality for everyday eating so I could stop dipping into my "expensive" stash, and these are the perfect solution. They compare well to other high quality spiced sardines. Great texture, wonderful spice, and a quality buy when bought in bulk. Highly recommended for any sardine lover’s pantry.

Amazing bang for your buck. Spiced and seasoned perfectly. A few scales here and there. Texture is as good as it gets. Not quite as pretty as Nuri’s but I prefer Flower’s texture and flavor. Less than 1/3 the price in bulk. The 50 pack will go faster than you think.

Pretty good and spicy

They're ok. Nothing bad stands out, but nothing really stands out about them. I consume a lot of sardines and other tinned fish. I always have Season/King Oscar/Fishwife/Brunswick/WildPlanet and a couple others in my "sardine cabinet". Yeh, I eat enough to warrant a special cupboard all for my fishies. I especially love when the sardine is spicy which is why I got these to try. They are super low level spicy, just barely there to me. Not enough flavor for what all is listed. Ingredients: Fish, Olive Oil, Spices (Chile Pepper (Piri-piri), Bay, Clove, Peppercorn), Carrot, Gherkin, Salt Texture and overall taste is fine just sort of blah. Again, nothing bad that concerns me. Seems fresh and I dont see anything worth mentioning. If you like very bland sardines, these may pique your interest. I happen to have enough experience in sardine consumption that these are likely not a repurchase unless there was a sale too good to pass up.

Delicious, mildly spiced, lot of flavor.
