Cacciatore Calabrese Salami (Spicy Salami) - 700g apx

Cacciatore Calabrese Salami (Spicy Salami) – 700g (Approx.)

Quattro Stelle’s Cacciatore Calabrese Salami is a traditional, spicy salami inspired by the hunters’ salami of old—a name derived from the Italian word cacciatore (hunter). Originally crafted as a lightweight, long-lasting food for those trekking the countryside, this salami remains a classic staple of Calabrian cuisine.

Carefully seasoned with a family recipe of homemade chilli, red wine, and capsicum sauce, this salami delivers a bold, spicy kick with deep, aromatic complexity. Its balanced heat and rich depth of flavour make it ideal for charcuterie boards, sandwiches, or as a robust ingredient in pasta dishes.

About the Producer

Quattro Stelle is a Sydney-based artisan producer with a rich heritage rooted in traditional Italian butchery and charcuterie. The legacy began in the 1850s when Antonio Sgro’s great-great-grandfather, Francesco Nicastri, and his brother Giovanni opened a "macelleria" (butcher shop) in Castiglione, Calabria, Italy. This family-run establishment, known as "La Chianca," was passed down through generations until its closure during World War II.

Seeking better opportunities, the Nicastri family emigrated to Australia, bringing with them their passion for traditional Italian salumi. Although they did not reopen a butcher shop, they continued crafting these cherished products for family and friends. In 2006, at the age of 23, Antonio Sgro founded Quattro Stelle, aiming to revive and perfect the long-lost art of salumi making passed down through his family.

Today, Quattro Stelle is renowned among Australia's top salumi manufacturers, celebrated for its dedication to authenticity, quality, and innovation. Their products set a high standard in the food industry, reflecting a commitment to craftsmanship and tradition that continues to influence and inspire others.
