This is a great looking box and nice and sturdy to keep your meat in. If you are a cured meat lover, consider the humidor box which is specially available through the RueLaLa deal!IMG_6922

The information card comes in the form of a meat lovers handbook.IMG_6923

It details the meats inside as well as provides a wine pairing suggestion! The meats in this box are from Salume Beddu, a St. Louis producer dedicated to the craft of Italian salumi. They craft all their salami from heritage pigs raised without confinement or antibiotics.

I am missing a photo of the Calabrese, to the left in the picture above, which is a spicy, coarse, and fatty bold salami. We tried eating that one plain but we found it best as a flavoring either on a sandwich or cooked in some way.

Crespone Secco – This was a traditional, firm and dried eating salami with warm flavors of cinnamon, garlic, and ginger. You can see from the package you get a hefty amount of the meats and they are packaged right before shipping – I took these photos November 1.IMG_6860

Finocchiona – a Tuscan style salame flavored with fennel and cheek fat, this one is dry cured and aged 5 months.

We found these artisan salamis to really go a long way (it took us an entire month to sample the box) –  and many were best heated up or used in a meal because of their intense flavor or fat content. This was a great box and could easily provide a month of elevated Italian eating!  This box will please any meat lover and we are considering gifting one to my brother-in-law, who is crazy about meat!

    The customer service here is atrocious. Save the headache and find a food subscription where the company actually values their clients. Trying to deal with them has been a nightmare and they are so incredibly rude.
