South Tyrolean salamis & smoked sausages

THE FINEST DELICACIES FOR MAXIMUM ENJOYMENT

Like speck and cheese, salamis and smoked sausages are essential in South Tyrolean cuisine. Whether accompanied by bread and potatoes, on pizza or in pasta dishes, South Tyrolean smoked sausages and salamis are the perfect components to add a delicious and satisfying touch to your dishes. We love salami, because it is perfect at any time of the day and always tastes delectable.

The combination of high-quality meat, salty notes and a subtle smoky aroma makes our salamis and smoked sausages a unique speciality. Round, reddish, mildly spicy and cut into fine slices, our salamis and smoked sausages taste divine. Their distinctively intense flavour is available in many different versions: wild boar salami, venison salami and many more.

Why the name „Kaminwurze“?

The origin of this name dates back to the time when many farmhouses in South Tyrol had a smoke box in the chimney. The sausages were hung and stored there for drying and preservation. As they hung down like roots from the fireplace for smoking purposes, they earned the name „Kaminwurzen“ (fireplace roots) which is still the name used today.

The meat is then cooled, ground, seasoned, smoked and air-dried. At Mendelspeck, we smoke our meat exclusively with beech wood because it gives our products a distinctively pleasant aroma. Finally, salamis and smoked sausages are carefully portioned, packaged and labelled with the corresponding quality seal.

Production quality and flawless production processes are our top priorities. We work every day to ensure our consumers can enjoy and be impressed by high-quality sausage products from South Tyrol.

Lovingly packaged, our salamis and smoked sausages are also ideal gift ideas for friends and relatives, colleagues and clients. Our precious meat products can be wonderfully combined to create beautifully packaged gift baskets full of South Tyrolean delicacies.
