The Suino Nero dei Nebrodi is a native Sicilian pig breed that has been raised for centuries in the mountainous and wooded areas of the region. It stands out for its dark, almost completely black coat, its rustic build and its exceptional ability to adapt to the natural environment. We raise it in semi-wild conditions in the Nebrodi park, where it feeds mainly on what the land offers: acorns, roots, wild herbs and a small amount of supplementary cereals. This natural diet gives the meat unique organoleptic qualities, making it prized and unmistakable.
Our pigs live in complete freedom across more than 140 hectares of woodland in the heart of the Nebrodi Park, moving freely and feeding naturally. Supplementation with Sicilian barley ensures a balanced diet, while continuous grazing promotes high assimilation of Vitamin E, giving the meat superior nutritional characteristics.
Every animal is registered with the ANAS Registry, guaranteeing its origin, the purity of the breed and complete traceability, from birth through to processing.
The pigs are processed in our salumificio nestled in the woods, where every stage is handcrafted with natural ageing that enhances the aromas of the territory. We carry out careful checks at every stage, to bring out the purity and authentic flavor of the breed.
The result is unique products, such as porchetta, bocconcini and salumi, that tell the story of the Nebrodi territory in every bite. Our philosophy combines tradition, territory and craftsmanship, to offer meats and salumi that are not only gastronomic excellences, but also an authentic expression of Sicilian culture and landscape.
