From the city of Piacenza, in the heart of the Emilia
Romagna region, a territory renowned for salumi excellence, the Piacentini DOP
dry cured meats are made according to traditions that respect the authentic and
genuine artisan techniques of production.
The DOP designation is attributed by the European Community
only to the products whose characteristics intrinsically depend on the
territory where they are produced. COPPA, SALAME AND PANCETTA PIACENTINA DOP
received the DOP designation in 1996. Piacenza is the only province in Italy to
have 3 salumi with a DOP designation. No other territory in Italy can boast
such high quality deli meats.
