Speck from Naturns/Naturno
Christanell GmbH has been producing Speck Alto Adige PGI in the market town of Naturns for over 20 years - a product that is one of the region's most important export goods.
Mild flavour and controlled maturation
Care, experience and a delicate balance of Alpine air and maturing time shape the flavour of Christanell's speck.
Only fresh meat from certified farms with full traceability is used for the speck. The legs are rubbed by hand with salt and spices - a particularly gentle process according to traditional recipes. Natural spices such as pepper, rosemary and allspice are used, as well as mild sea salt from a selected region of Italy. The speck is then gently smoked with beech wood and matured for around 22 weeks in the dry South Tyrolean mountain air. Modern technology is used to keep the temperature and humidity constant during the maturing process.
