Black Pepper & Cherry Prosciutto - La Quercia

A bold and innovative take on traditional prosciutto, La Quercia's Black Pepper & Cherry variation adds unexpected dimension to the charcuterie classic. Each rear leg of the highest quality Heritage Berkshire breed pork is hand-rubbed with cherry puree and cracked black pepper, creating an enticing interplay of slightly sweet fruit and zesty spice. Rubbed with sea salt, then hung, dried, and cured in closely monitored aging rooms, this prosciutto develops a distinctive flavor profile that stands out on any charcuterie board. The natural sweetness of cherry complements the rich pork beautifully, while the cracked black pepper provides a pleasant heat and aromatic complexity.
