Detailed Information

This extra-aged San Daniele ham is produced using select Italian pork legs, cured solely with sea salt and natural air, following the strict traditions of the region. The extended 40-44 month aging process enhances its complex flavor profile, developing pronounced umami richness, deep nutty undertones, and delicate sweetness.

The prolonged curing time also contributes to a silky, melt-in-the-mouth texture, with intensified marbling that creates a buttery consistency. The boneless preparation preserves these characteristics while allowing for precise, uniform slicing. Its aromatic complexity and depth make it a prestigious addition to fine dining and gourmet applications.
