Culatello di Zibello

Food · PDO · 7 municipalities

Culatello di Zibello DOP is distinguished from neighboring cured meats by its exceptionally narrow geographic scope and small producer base. While other regional specialties are produced widely, this denomination is restricted to just 7 municipalities within Emilia-Romagna, including Busseto and Colorno. Since gaining official European recognition in 1996, the production has remained highly exclusive. Today, only 20 verified producers are permitted to craft this food. The Consorzio di Tutela del Culatello di Zibello closely monitors these select makers, keeping the entire output concentrated strictly within the boundaries of these specific, authorized municipalities.
