Maturing | At least 18 months |
Curiosity | The Salumificio Zahre works first choice Italian thighs belonging to the Parma - San Daniele network, with a size of 14,5-15,5 kg when fresh and with a high fat content, which allows flavour and long maturations. The process requires that, in addition to the salt, there are small quantities of garlic and pepper, which contribute very lightly to give complexity to the perfume. The other characterizing element is obviously given by the smoking with beech wood: it is a slow process that lasts about three days, and is done in a dedicated room in the first part of the product's seasoning, when the hams are 120 days old. |
Our selection | The entire production cycle takes place in the Sauris ham factory, at an altitude of 1212 m. Elvis produces 500 Sauris hams a month, a very small number for a ham factory, which allows great craftsmanship and care for the product. |

Why we chose them
Salumificio Zahre is a young artisan reality in Ampezzo, in the heart of the Carnic Alps, more precisely in Val Lumiei among the common of Ampezzo
and Sauris. The company is based on the historical pork-butchery tradition of the region in which it is located and which dates back to 762, when
Ampezzo was known as "Vicius Ampicio" and was a reference for crafts and trade. Zahre's production is based on raw materials of the highest
quality to transform them into fresh and seasoned pork sausages. From smoked ham to bacon, the products that are
they get in Zahre are worked by expert hands, following the ancient recipes and only made with natural ingredients. As per tradition, important is the
production of smoked cured meats such as mountain ham or Crudo di Sauris PGI: all strictly smoked with beech wood.
