The History of Carpegna Prosciutto is a Unique History. It tells us of the fascinating and pristine land of Montefeltro, its ancient prosciutto making tradition and the treasury of knowledge of the people of Carpegna. Carpegna’s Microclimate is Unique. Carpegna is located between Emilia-Romagna, Marche and Tuscany in the Sassi del Simone and Simoncello Natural Preserve, at the heart of the Montefeltro mountains. Situated in a valley surrounded by the woodland scents of verdant hills and caressed by the salty air of the Adriatic Sea, this microclimate is one of Carpegna’s special secrets. Carpegna’s Origin is Unique. According to an ancient tradition dating back to the Middle Ages, 1400, pigs roamed in the wild in the Simoncello Preserve. The nearby sweet salt marshes of Cervia guaranteed the main ingredient in preserving the meat. This is how Carpegna prosciutto was born. Carpegna’s Artisanal Production Process is Unique. Only strict selection and curing methods result in the production of Carpegna Prosciutto. Only salt from Cervia may be used. The special coating, or “Stucco”, is made from an ancient recipe composed of lard, salt, and a blend of secrets spices. In 1996 Prosciutto di Carpegna gained DOP recognition for these particular qualities inherent in our production method
