PEAR,

A TASTY PROCE SS
It's no coincidence that Prosciutto di
San Daniele tastes the way it does. In
picturesque San Daniele del Friuli - the
home of the world-renowned prosciutto
- the bracing breezes of the Adriatic Sea
collide with cooling winds from the Alps.
To make the conditions even more perfect
for prosciutto, morainic hills curb humidity
while the Tagliamento river regulates the
temperature. Add the climate to the
centuries-old processing, and it makes for
a prosciutto that boasts a lip-smacking
taste and melt-in-the-mouth experience.
Grana Padano Cheese is similarly
steeped in history, having first been
fashioned in the 12th century by the
Cistercian monks of Chiaravalle. The
process may have evolved over time,
but the taste remains rich and sweet.
