Just the best of the Sicilian tradition
The optimal climate for curing the preserved fish typical of South-Western Sicily, the exclusive use of Mediterranean basin fish that stands out for aroma, shine and fragrance, tradition, experience and the love for this work passed down to his children by Pasquale Carlino, founder of the company, mean that, still today, Carlino is an important reference point in the fishery sector.
