BOURAZANI FALLOW DEER HAM

(Available from October 2021)

Fallow deer ham, dry-cured meat from round leg and sirloin tip.

The very best hams (boneless) BOURAZANI are made from Fallow deer that roam freely at the oak forests, property of Tassos family, fed with grasses, herbs, roots, cereals and leafs until September. From October to January, during these four (4) months, they eat acorns, the fallow deer’s favorite acorns come from the tree different spices of oak, Quercus frainetto, cerris & pubencens. Their acorn-based diet insures their meat exceptional aroma and flavor and provides a high melting point (around room temperature) for their fat. Those are the basic key elements in the sublime flavor of a great BOURAZANI Fallow deer.

The BOURAZANI Fallow deer ham are cured in salt for approximately fifteen (15) days, washed with local red wine and then rested for at least one month. After this procedure our products get drying process for six  months (6) and during that time BOURAZANI Fallow deer ham starts to develop the aromas that characterize the perfected product, right before they get covered in wax and enter the curing cellars where they hang for up to one year. BOURAZANI Fallow Deer ham products can have ‘HALAL’ certification.
