Aperitivo Toscano

As you prepare for your next aperitivo (happy hour), you'll want to assemble a tagliere, or charcuterie board, using the Aperitivo Toscano bundle as your guide to finding the perfect pairing of Toscana's finest DOP salumi and formaggi. The Aperitivo Toscano contains Pecorino and Prosciutto Toscano, both DOP certified — meaning Denominazione d'Origine Protetta, or Protected Designation of Origin — an official label that certifies a product was made in a specific geographical region, according to particular local traditions and following strict guidelines.
Pecorino Toscano DOP is an award-winning semi-hard cheese typical of Toscana. This classic sheep's milk cheese has to ripen for a minimum of 120 days, creating a well-balanced, elegant cheese that boasts a compact and ivory-colored paste.
Prosciutto Toscano DOP is a savory prosciutto crudo made according to traditions that date back to the time of the Medici, from cutting and seasoning carefully selected pork legs by hand to curing in special rooms with controlled temperature and humidity. Cured with salt and local spices like juniper, rosemary, and black pepper, this earthy, intense prosciutto owes its flavor to the fresh air from rolling hills and the Tyrrhenian Sea and boasts an almost spicy finish.
The perfect combination of tradition and taste, discover the best of Toscana's Salumi and Formaggi with the bundle Aperitivo Toscano!
