Antica Ardenga is a small company that produces limited quantities of cured meats from the Bassa Parmense.
The ‘Bassa’ is an area along the banks of the Po River, in the province of Parma, which has always been devoted, due to tradition and an ideal climate, to the production of high quality cured meats. Undoubtedly, the best known and most appreciated local product is Culatello di Zibello DOP, the undisputed king of Italian pork butchery; the production of other sausages and salamis, all of which have always been linked to local traditions, is also quite extensive. The company is one of the twenty-three producers that make up the Consorzio of Culatello di Zibello.
The Production reflects the techniques which have always been used by the pork butchers of the Bassa (Lower Po Valley). Then it is our humid cellars with their ideal microclimate that, together with the weather and fog, contribute to making them unique. To respect the tradition, our pigs are like those of yesteryear: born and bred on the farm, fed with the farm’s products, brought up to 14 months old and then slaughtered at around 260 kg. Naturally, everything is O.G.M. free.
