Cirigliano Lucanian Capocollo

Lucanian Capocollo from Cirigliano, Made with Carefully Sourced Pork

Lucanian Capocollo from Cirigliano is one of the most representative cured meats in Basilicata's food tradition. Made from the neck muscles of pigs raised on controlled farms, it follows an ancient artisan preparation method that values meat quality and the time needed for proper ageing. The result is a balanced cured meat expressing the authentic character of Lucanian charcuterie.

Artisan Preparation and at Least Three Months of Ageing

Production of Lucanian Capocollo from Cirigliano begins by salting the meat with sea salt and selected spices. After resting in a cold environment, the capocollo is massaged, wrapped in traditional pork-fat casing and tied by hand. It then dries for approximately ten days and matures for at least three months, developing a delicate aroma with pepper notes and a sweet, lightly savoury flavour. It is made without added preservatives or colourings.

Perfect for Sharing Boards, Antipasti and Aperitifs

Lucanian Capocollo from Cirigliano is delicious served on its own as part of boards featuring cured meats and cheeses, or as the centrepiece of antipasti and aperitifs. Pair with aged pecorino, rustic bread and red wines from Basilicata, such as Aglianico del Vulture. An artisan cured meat that celebrates Lucanian tradition and conviviality.
