Comments about Sopressata by Beretta:

I have been using this brand for years and being Italian born and trained I was aware of the quality. I live in North East Wisconsin and it is almost impossible to find any traditional Italian meats here. I was pleased that igourmet carried it and I love both the mild and the hot. The quality and flavor are unsurpassed.

Delicious!

Comments about Sopressata by Beretta:

If I hadn't taken a sliver for myself when I first sliced this, I would not know what it tasted like. We had the sweet variety--very nice and good! It went extremely fast at our last party and I had several other meat options available. Slice thin for best serving results and to make it go further.
