Preserving Florida heritage seafood since 2007

Wild Caught & Preserved Florida Heritage Seafood including our legendary Cortez Bottarga and the worlds only Buttonwood Smoked Mullet Roe and Blackfin Tuna Mojama!!

The pristine waters of the Florida Gulf Coast, off of Anna Maria Island and the connecting fishing village of Cortez, are home to one of this country's last sustaining wild fisheries.  Brothers Seth and Mic Cripe,  Florida natives, started Cortez Conservas with the mission of working to create high quality preserved local seafood, and to support their friends and family's way of life as fisherman, and help preserve it for the livelihood of future generations.  

From the sea to the finished product, we do it all - fishing sustainably using hand-thrown cast nets and/or Pole and Line, cleaning the catch, curing the fresh harvest in salt and patiently drying it to ensure optimum quality and preservation.  This is all completed within days of the catch, thereby creating the freshest seafood conservas you will ever try.  These vibrant seafood delicacies are enjoyed by foodies around the world as stand alone umami and/or will add wonderful complexity to a variety of dishes with their bright flavors and balanced salinity.  We are confident that we produce the truest expression of Striped Grey Mullet Bottarga, Smoked Mullet Roe and BlackFin Tuna Mojama in the world!
