Prosciutto Dorsogna

Taste

Nothing can probably taste as good as the prosciutto from Italy, but this came very close. This was salty, but also has a nice layer of fat, and more importantly, more than just seasoning! You can taste the smoky aged meat.

Rating - 7.5

Look

They slice it thinly for you, as they should. The prosciutto is a dark red, verging on brown, and looks beautiful with its side of white fat.

C-factor

$45/kg. Actually I think it's more expensive in Italy, so this was perfectly acceptable. I heard the new imported Parma hams costs up to $120 a kilo, so this is nothing really!
