Guanciale

It’s one of the most important cured meats of Italian gastronomic culture.

It was born as a product with simple processing that reveals highly valuable characteristics recalling the genuine tastes of the past.
It is obtained from the pig’s cheek, skilfully worked by local artisans, naturally enriched with pepper and salt and subjected to a short seasoning. At the taste it reveals a unique flavour, a synthesis of the soft thin part taste, and a strong taste coming from the fat part.
