Traditional water buffalo salami, mild but full of rustic character and a rich, deep meaty flavour. This gourmet charcuterie combines aromatic buffalo meat with pork pancetta, freshly ground pepper and garlic, creating a moreish combination that is hard to put down. Each artisanal salami is made from prime cuts in small batches and smoked over fragrant beech wood for an unforgettable experience.
Water buffalo meat is naturally low in cholesterol and has higher Omega 3 content than beef and pork, making it the perfect choice for a health-conscious diet.
Delicious on its own, in sandwiches, as a pizza topping or sliced into risottos and pasta sauces. It makes the perfect centrepiece for charcuterie boards, going especially well with hard cheese including Cheddar, Parmesan or Gouda.
Received 1* at the 2021 Great Taste Award.
Comments from the Great Taste judges:
"A dark salami with an inviting aroma and rustic texture. It has an enjoyable meatiness and a very good level of spice. Sweet and creamy fat complements the salty pancetta adding further layers of flavour. The well-judged level of smokiness adds complexity and a further dimension of flavour. The environment of the buffalo is clearly showcased in the deliciously natural flavours of this salami."
