Almadraba bluefin tuna
Luego de buscar un poco, veo que se refiere a una forma tradicional de atrapar estos pescados y es una característica a resaltar del producto. Por eso creo que sí sería bueno dejar 'almadraba'.
Algunos ejemplos que encontré:
- "The Almadraba bluefin tuna is one of Andalusia's gastronomic jewels. It has an exceptional quality. The Japanese consider it one of the finest delicacies."
- "This is hardly surprising as the almadraba bluefin tuna that delights palates half the world around is simply unique."
- "Jesús Morillo has designed eight plates that will be available at the restaurant from the 1st to the 7th of July, starring Almadraba Bluefin Tuna."
Espero que se de ayuda :)

: I suggest "tuna caught in the almadraba style", I don´t think there´s a direct translation into English. I would avoid "almadraba bluefin tuna" because one could think it´s a species (or subspecies) of the tuna family.

: I would say 'Almadraba-caught bluefin tuna'. It's a fishing method, not a type of tuna.

See the discussion entries, or this:

Depending on the context, you might want to add a few words of explanation, like "caught using the centuries-old almadraba netting technique".

: I think the word 'almadraba' should be included in the translated term. An explanation can be given later on in the text, if possible, or the consumer can look it up. // I think it's important to include 'almadraba' on the label, otherwise why specify it?

I don't agree. You shouldn't include words that readers have to look up.

: Yeah, maybe stick "almadraba" in somewhere in italics if it's a posh menu...

El nuevo fraude en el consumo tiene al atún por rey: vender un filete de este pescado haciéndolo pasar por atún rojo consigue inflar los precios de 12 a casi 30 euros el kilo. Los expertos avisan de que, al menos, un 40% de las piezas de atún rojo son timos. (Nov. 2017)

¿Cuánto valor le dan al hecho de que sea "atún rojo" que algun "vivo" tuvo la idea de pintarlo? Wow y no es para menos, ya que cuesta un ojo de la cara. Realmente debe ser delicioso. Lisa, me agrada tu sugerencia en cuanto a Almadraba-caught. Ya que la palabra "rojo" brilla por su ausencia, al menos la técnica milenaria de pesca de la que se sienten orgullosos debería permanecer.

En cuanto a la segunda pregunta, sí, "bluefin tuna" es el equivalente de "atún rojo". En estos casos siempre es conveniente recurrir al nombre científico para despejar cualquier posible duda. Véase aquí:

Wild Red Tuna is the rarest and most expensive tuna in Spain. Ventresca is the softest and most juicy part of the tuna and has the right amount of saltiness. This tuna comes from the Bay of Biscay, north Spain. Right after the caught, the animal is handily and carefully prepared: washed, boiled, filleted, and preserved. Don Bocarte fish is always prepared with fresh loins from big red tunas, following the artisanal tradition.
Traditional Red Tuna fishing in Barbate, Spain: La Almadraba
We recently visited La Almadraba in Barbate, Cadiz (Southern Spain) and witnessed the spectacular “levantá”. This is the orchestrated action of raising the fishing traps in order to retrieve the wild Red Tuna onto the fishing boats.

This trap-fishing method, known as almadraba in Spanish, is considered the oldest form of industrial fishing in the world, dating 3,000 years to the Phoenicians.
Sorry, Taña, this seems to be exactly your text. Same source!
It sounds like a thoroughly controversial product, given that bluefin tuna is an endangered species.

One other point: gram is usually abbreviated as g, not gr.
