Parma Ham
Pio Tosini Company's "Tre Ghiande" ham
The sweet ham of Parma can't be made just anywhere. It acquires it's incomparable taste and its unforgettable aroma only in a particular zone in the district of Parma.
The Pio Tosini company would not have become one of the most credible and sought-after producers of Parmesean ham in its over eighty years of activity on the market if it hadn't established itself in the right location and precisely in the particular section of the Val Parma which is called "Langhirano".
...And this miracle is still and is always performed by human hands
In Pio tosini ham, salt and air continue, as always, to be the ingredients: as in the past, human hands, with the help of modern technology, take care of every phase of the processing, trimming, salting, glazing and where required, the boning of the finished product.
Pio tosini ham is not produced. It's made.
The Pio Tosini company has an annual production of 130,000 hams which it markets through its own exclusive sales network in Italy and abroad. Pio Tosini is among the few ham companies qualified to export ot the USA.
A pre-eminence like that of the Pio Tosini company can only be attained day by day, selecting exclusively first-choice meats originating from swine of select breeds and raised according to the highest nutritional standards. The Pio Tosini company has become famous because it has remained true to the quality and authenticity of the manufacturing process.
Seasoned and aged in a miraculous environment
The technological supports have changed, the production dimensions have been updated, the hygienic controls have been increased, the transport is no longer only manual, but the process has not changed. Even with a production of 130,000 hams, the Pio Tosini ham company has not become a factory, but it has always remained nothing more than the place where a fresh cut of pig thigh, salted, seasoned, and ages, is born "ham" in the magic air of Langhirano.
Pio tosini's "Tre Ghiande" ham
Founded by Ferrante Tosini at the beginning of the century, developed by his son Pio, for whom the company is named, and later transferred into a limited company, the firm boasts a long family tradition.
Its products are offered to the market both with bones and boneless, every product being distinguished by the trademark "Tre Ghiande".
It's thanks to companies like Pio Tosini if Parmeasean has retained the honor of centuries-old fame and world-wide renown.
