CHARCUTERIE

SALAME DI CINGIALE (WILD BOAR SALAME) 4.50 PER 100G

Wild boar salami undergoes the same processes as pork meats however since wild boar meat often contains less fat, the final product tends to have a drier texture and stronger flavour. 

Best to be enjoyed with a full-bodied red wine.

VALENTINA EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL £15.50 1000ml         £8.50 500ml

Our extra virgin olive oil is grown and pressed in our own family farm near the Town of Cassino (just south of Rome). The Olive variety we use is called Leccino and this produces a good smooth taste with a slight peppery kick at the end. This is good for all uses i.e. dressings, dips and even for cooking.
