Pork & Native Pepperberry Salami - 1.5kg apx

Pork & Native Pepperberry Salami – ~1.5kg

A native Australian twist on a European classic, this 100% pork salami is made with hand-cut fat and a blend of cheek and collar cuts, offering a rich, well-marbled texture. Tasmanian native pepperberry and anise myrtle provide a fresh, aromatic depth, while a touch of garlic keeps the profile bold and savoury.

Aged for 3–4 months, this salami starts with earthy, sweet, and salty notes, followed by a warming spice that builds on the palate. Over time, the pepperiness mellows, giving way to subtle notes of Australian bush scrub and menthol, making it a complex and evolving charcuterie experience.
