Sottocrespone is one of the five types of Varzi salami, which has linked its name to the local salami, protected by a PDO. An ancient sausage (its origins date back to the Lombards), representing the aristocracy of Italian salamis, made with noble cuts of pork (at least 70% lean meat). Sottocrespone Vecchio Varzi is a one-kilo filzettone with at least 60 days of ageing and a sweet, well-balanced saltiness in the mouth. An accomplished, clean and delicate salami.
