The product is supplied chilled to preserve its texture and aromatic qualities.

Detailed Information

Culatta is produced using carefully selected pork legs where the prime muscle is separated and cured with salt before undergoing a controlled maturation process. During aging, the meat gradually develops a firm yet tender texture and a refined aromatic profile.
The finished culatta displays a deep red color with fine marbling and a smooth texture that allows thin slicing. Its flavor is balanced and delicate, characterized by mild salinity and subtle cured meat aromas typical of traditional Italian charcuterie.
