Prosciutti
The Prosciutti, which are Il Borgo's pride and joy, are made with the finest quality hams of heavy Italian pigs, 100% bred and butchered in Italy.
In accordance with tradition, the meat is processed strictly by hand by Il Borgo's qualified personnel, who are responsible for every process, from removing the bone and trimming to the completion of the ageing process.
The delicate salting process, carried out without the use of additives or preservatives, is followed by a long curing process to guarantee the unmistakable taste and aroma.
The surface of all the Prosciutti is treated with pork fat based lard ("sugna") and rice flour.
