📍 COMUR

The COMUR factory was inaugurated in 1942 in the Murtosa community (Murtosa) and is one of the important brands in the Portuguese canning industry. From a commitment to exporting eel to diversified canned fish, we now have more than 20 branches in Portugal. The store offers more than 20 types of canned goods for visitors to choose from. Since the canned goods in the store are more exquisite and of higher quality than those seen in supermarkets on weekdays, even though they are more expensive, they have become the best choice for many travelers to buy souvenirs.

The first days were like entering the Charlie Chocolate Factory world, and the models inside symbolize that all products originated from Portuguese waters. Portuguese waters are highly salty, so seafood has a natural saltiness. Sardines are one of Portugal's traditional cuisines, so COMUR's flagship souvenir is canned sardines from different years. Travellers buy the year of birth or anniversary that represents the target of the gift, making it one of the most popular products.

In addition to this, the store also has a box of 6 cans of canned sardines, including 4 traditional Portuguese recipes and 2 canned sardines with different preservation methods. In addition to the exquisite packaging, the design of each can carefully preserves Portuguese elements. In addition to the famous sardines, the store also has a variety of canned octopus, mackerel, and sea bream to choose from.

Another eye-catching decoration in the store is the golden canned sardine fish, which has been specially treated to remove the skin and bones, and the gold slices can be used. Of course, each can is also more expensive than the others (€22). We ended up buying a total of 3 cans of canned octopus (€15.8), the store's unique smoked salmon roe (€31.2), canned sardines in tomato sauce (€9.8), and canned sardines in olive oil (€15). After I get home and try every flavor, I'll update this post to see if it's different from everyday canned food!
