COLIMENA

A coastal tower and an ancient salt pan, now a protected oasis—what a lovely setting to unwind and, with today’s knowledge, rediscover the flavors of tradition. The Tonno Colimena brand products truly capture the essence of this heritage. The Colimena process of handling fresh produce and cooking in water reflects age-old practices, brought together by time and the dedicated skill of those who transform the catch into something special every day.

The tuna caught in the Mediterranean Sea is gently cooked in a bath of fragrant herbs, white vinegar, and lemon—a delicate method that preserves its full, authentic flavour.

They fillet the tuna by hand and, once again by hand, carefully package it. Yes, patience is part of the process, but that’s what makes it so special. Every day, their focus on quality and raw materials helps

Colimena grow and stay in tune with the latest taste trends.

The products of Colimena beautifully embody the spirit of Torre Colimena’s ancient tuna fishery—a true reflection of the local region, Salento’s rich culinary tradition, and the bounty of the Ionian Sea.
