Karst Prosciutto - Kraški Pršut Gift box Idea

Content of the gift box:

A quarter of a piece Kraški Pršut ca. 1,2 kg - Karst Prosciutto matured 12 to 14 months

For decades now the best pork hams have been selected in early December in the Karst regions and have been salted with raw sea salt from the salines of Piran. The hams are salted for three months and in the coolness of the Karst winter they are allowed to rest.

In spring, the salted hams are hung up in attics where the pleasant Karst wind dries them slowly. Dry, cold wind from the mountains lends the ham its characteristic aroma and its typical flavour.

It takes at least one year for the ham to mature. Due to the dry climate, the Karst Prosciutto has an attractive rosy colour, an exquisite flavour and solid consistence.

Ham that matures in moister areas is softer in consistence and contains more water.
