Gourmet products local specialties and wines Calitri

The Tornillos have been butchers since 1957, working with pork in an artisanal way, favouring local products, rural tradition and the rejection of intensive farming. The sausages are made by hand from the meat of local pigs fed on natural feed. In their butcher's shop in Calitri, in addition to the meat, you can buy all the typical pork products of southern Italy: soppressata irpina, salsiccia calitrana, pancetta, capocollo, guanciale, spianataand other quality products.

Thefarm produces excellent cheeses from the fresh milk of the day from local farms. The star of the dairy is the caciocavallo, a string cheese that is matured for between six months and a year in the tuff caves scattered around the historic centre of Calitri. The cheeses are hung in rows from wooden beams at a constant natural temperature of 13°C. Also worth trying among their range of cheeses are the conzato calitrano, with its powerful taste, and the stellato, a pecorino with star anise.
