For a visit to the Parma ham Prosciutto factory, we will head to the picturesque hills of Langhirano, the birthplace of Prosciutto di Parma Ham. You will explore the ‘ambient temperature stage’ with a visit to the aging rooms, permeated by the distinctive aromas of the ham. Here, you will learn about the ‘spillatura’ technique, where only the premium hams pass the test and those chosen by the Consortium Inspector receive the distinguished ‘Crown of Parma’ branding.
The gastronomic journey concludes with a tasting of Parma ham accompanied by a glass of Malvasia, a bubbly, local white wine.
