VENISON PROSCIUTTO

The venison haunches are cured using natural salt with a mixture of hand picked herbs from our garden. The meat is cold smoked, air dried and left to mature for a minimum of 9 months. The flavour is amazing!

COLD SMOKING

Cold smoking is a traditional way of preserving game meat. The smoke not only adds flavour but helps to reduce the moisture content before it is left to mature. We use native hardwoods and fruit woods sourced locally.

Wild and organic

Game is harvested from natural landscapes such as forests, farm land and moorlands, which means their diet is natural from eating fresh vegetation, berries and insects. This diet gives game meat its distinctive delicious taste.

The game meat is very versatile for instance venison can replace beef in most recipes and pheasant and partridge can replace chicken. Our cold smoked products can be easy prepared to be served simply with a preserve and seasonal vegetables to winter casseroles and game pies. In addition the smoky aromas from the meat create fabulous in depth flavours which creates a meal to remember.

WILD SCOTTISH VENISON PROSCIUTTO HAM

Charcuterie is versatile and convenient, whether you're in the mood for a quick countertop snack or you're entertaining guests. When it comes to your more exotic and creative choices for meat, we recommend trying cured cuts of wild venison. Enjoy our venison at home during the holidays or at anytime, or create your own gourmet Italian gift baskets for the food lover in your life. Unlike pork products, deer meats are lean, low in calories and heart healthy.

Whether you're a connoisseur of venison or you're looking for healthy and sustainable alternatives to conventional red meats, we know you'll love our prosciutto. Venison prosciutto pairs wonderfully on a charcuterie board with olives, tapenades and hard, salty Italian cheeses such as Parmigiano or Pecorino. The flavors of venison prosciutto also gracefully combine with a wide variety of warm dishes; chop it finely and bake into a quiche, use it as a pizza topping, enhance the hearty flavors of a winter soup or create a simple but gourmet panini.

When we create our prosciutto, we use all-natural ingredients and never add chemicals in the process. Our entire curing process lasts nine months to allow the flavours of herbs and venison to come together to create a harmonious palate that maximises the delectable flavors of wild game. The result is an unforgettable cured ham that's perfect for any occasion.

We're a small family owned business of expert artisans, and are guided by our commitment to consistent and superior quality and customer service. In an effort to work toward sustainability, we source our wild venison from local game dealers and Scottish country estates, and our commitment to quality and excellence means we adhere to a strict set of manufacturing and safety standards.
