From Italy

Made from a hog’s leg, Alto Adige speck by Recla has been prepared through a meticulous, 5-month long aging process. First, the meat is seasoned with salt and spices, including pepper, juniper berries, allspice, and laurel. After resting for a month, speck is smoked with beechwood, ash, or juniper for ten days, and then aged again for several months. Through this process, Alto Adige speck develops a fine, lean texture with a traditional spicy, smoky, slightly buttery flavor and a relatively low salt content.
