In Saint-Rhemy, an entire day dedicated to the discovery of the “king of cured ham”.
Gastronomists and curious food lovers can try the Vallée d’Aoste Jambon de Bosses PDO, appreciate its unique flavour and buy it straight from the manufacturer as well as taste many other typical products and the best wines.
The characteristic flavor of the ‘jambon’ is due to the skill of the ‘curers’, the dry climate, the particular exposition and the crossing air flows descending from the hills of Malatra, Citrin, Serena and Gran San Bernardo, which create the ideal environment for its production and seasoning; the juniper, thyme and herbs of the valley which endow it with a delicate and aromatic smell, whilst hay, which is used during its seasoning, gives it its unmistakable fragrance.
