The place
In the heart of Foligno, Norcineria Pizzoni Adelmo carries on the ancient art of norcineria through traditional, handmade processing. The Pizzoni family transforms selected pork into salumi that speak of the Umbrian territory: from the coppa di testa, recognised among the country's finest, to the capocollo, from cured prosciutto to fresh sausages. The open workshop allows visitors to watch the stages of production, while the shop offers tastings and sales of the full range, rounded out by local cheeses and rocciata, a traditional sweet made according to the time-honoured recipe.
