Livestock

All the herds from which we provide are strictly selected, these are only farmers who operate according to ancient artisan traditions Tuscan, for this reason the quantity of this products is limited, the main reason for not selling the parcel of IGP or 5R, we only allows you to book this meat, this is because within two days after the slaughter the meat must be matured in cold storage to maintain the flavour, so when you book the package of Chianina IGP or 5R in fact the animal is still alive in the barn.

The reservation is required because the number of livestock is kept strictly stable to maintain its excellence from the standpoint of quality, so as not to risk upsetting the timing of the slaughter procedure and preparation of the meat.

The meat Chianina IGP or the 5R and most of the pork meat comes from the farm Romani in Palazzo del Pero (AR), the slopes of the Tuscan hills, it’s the place where GRANDIGUSTI is born just after having verified the professionalism and traditions of this farm, operating since the early '800.
