Prosciutto di San Daniele is produced only in the Friuli Venezia Giulia region, in the hilly area around the town of San Daniele in the province of Udine. With its guitar-like shape, it is made solely of the meat of pigs born and bred in Italy and sea salt. It is a natural food product with no additives or preservatives of any kind. Its high nutritional value and ease of digestion make it suitable for any type of diet.
