Another sizzling success for Denhay Farms
19th March 2009

Denhay Farms' new Wiltshire cure bacon is another sizzling success. It has been selected as a finalist by Love Bacon in the Annual Bacon Connoisseur's competition.

Judges were looking for exceptional flavour profiles and outstanding presentation in each of the four categories - classic dry cure, Wiltshire cure, speciality cure and smoked cure.

George Streatfeild, MD of Denhay Farm, said:
"Our Wiltshire cure bacon is our very latest addition to the Denhay range and we are extremely pleased to have such good feed-back so early on. Being slected as a finalist is no mean feat."

Wiltshire Cure is the original and most widely known of the 'wet cures', dating back to the 1840's. The methods used to create it include traditional skills which are rarely used in modern bacon production.

Mr Streatfeild added: "We are fortunate to have found a bacon expert who has years of knowledge and experience of the traditional Wiltshire curing method. The bacon is given a fortnight to mature and this time element is the most important ingredient next to the quality of the pork."
