Shoulder Ham

Aged 12-20 months, from pigs raised in the wild

The sweetness of the Norcia tradition: a noble, delicate and timeless cured meat.

Ammano Shoulder Ham

Ammano Shoulder Ham is a quintessential Italian cured meat, the result of a process that begins with respect for nature and ends with the art of handcrafting. Made from the shoulder of pigs born and raised in the wild in Italy, this cured meat stands out for its absolute authenticity. The animals' free-range lifestyle and natural diet give the meat a firm texture and a superior flavor profile, which is then enhanced by the expert hands of the master butchers of Montefiascone.
The process is entirely artisanal: after salting (with only salt, pepper, and meat), the shoulders rest patiently for a period ranging from 12 to 20 months. This long curing process allows for the development of an incredibly sweet and delicate flavor, less salty than traditional prosciutto crudo but equally complex and satisfying.
 
 
 

The roots of this shoulder ham are deep in tradition

Often considered prosciutto's "little sister," spalla actually holds a very high gastronomic value, prized since Roman times for its sweetness. The curing process in Montefiascone, a land of winds and history, creates the ideal microclimate for the slow maturation of cured meats.
Ammano revives this pork butcher's heritage by integrating it into its closed-loop supply chain. It's not a standardized industrial product, but the result of an ecosystem where free-range farming allows the pigs to live according to their instincts, ensuring a raw material of exceptional quality that respects both the animal and the environment.
 
 
 

Choosing Shoulder Ham means taking care of yourself

Free-range pork has distinctive nutritional characteristics: it is rich in high-quality proteins and has superior-quality fat, with a good presence of unsaturated fatty acids.
The absence of nitrites, nitrates and chemical preservatives makes this ham a safe and natural food.
