For 35 years, Frierss has been handcrafting premium prosciutto in Carinthia.
Our preservation of this classic Italophile specialty has its origins in the geographic location of the family business in the heart of the Alpine-Adriatic region, as well as in our grandfather’s pioneering spirit and passion for all things Italian. “Prosciutto Castello” (commonly known as “Carinthian Castle Ham”) owes its name to its original aging site in Castle Treffen.
35 years of experience, strictly-selected pork thighs from free-range pigs in Carinthia and Styria, and the traditional aging process of at least 14 months in the clear Gegend valley mountain air are the secrets to this first-class raw ham of Austria.
