CASELLA’S PROSCIUTTO SPECIALE is made in America following the time-tested traditions of Italy’s norcini, the itinerant butchers who traveled the countryside preparing, seasoning and aging meat. Just like those dedicated artisans of old, our prosciutto starts with the highest quality ingredients. We exclusively use rare-breed heritage pigs, including Duroc, Old Spot, Tamworth, Berkshire, Large Black, which are pasture-raised by small family farmers across the United States. Our slow, on-the-bone curing process follows the standards of the Italian prosciutto consortia and produces consistently gorgeous results. The meat is juicy. It is marbled, delicate and nutty. We value that each ham is unique from the next, showcasing the subtle difference between breeds, farms, sizes and pigs. At Casella’s we believe in the quality of ingredients — good pork, salt and time. It’s that simple.
