ABOUT IMV SALUMI AND A KEY INGREDIENT: SALT
All of our dry cure salumi products utilize natural pure sea salt mined from the ancient oceans of the west just over the "hills" from Denver, over in Utah. Our clean tastes and clean products are Nitrite and Nitrate Free.
The Real Salt® Difference
Long before the earth knew pollutants of any kind, a huge, ancient sea covered what is now North America. Pure, natural salt was the main ingredient of this sea, and over millions of years, the water evaporated, leaving the salt in undisturbed deposits. At some point during the earth's Jurassic era, a range of volcano's erupted around the ancient sea bed, sealing the salt with layers of thick volcanic ash, protecting these precious deposits against the pollution that man would eventually introduce into the environment. Near the small town of Redmond, in central Utah, approximately 200 miles south of Salt Lake City, we extract this hand-selected salt from deep within the earth, and bring it to you in its pure, natural state-without any additives, chemicals, or heat processing. This is Real Salt, full of flavor and natural goodness-the way salt was meant to be savored!
Compared to Real Salt brand salt, many sea salts appear stark white because they have undergone a harsh refining process. Unlike Real Salt, these salts are filled with silicates, dextrose, and other additives. By contrast, Real Salt is an all-natural, kosher-certified sea salt extracted from deep within the earth, crushed, screened, and packaged. Real Salt's unique flecks of color are the result of more than 50 natural trace minerals essential to human health (including natural iodine!). Experience the goodness of Real Salt!
IMV is mindlful of all aspects of sustainably sourced materials down to each grain of salt. Simply Put....We Produce Quality, Consistent, Safe, Sustainable, and Simply Outstanding Hand Crafted, Clean Tasting Artisanal Salumi!

Duck Breast Prosciuttio
Pricy but Delicious Review by Janie
Air-dried duck breast is hard to find, and this one is exceptional. Anyone fond of prosciutto, especially the feral pig Jamon Iberico of Spain, will find this alternative more than competitive. (Posted on 4/22/10)
Not cheap, but worth it Review by Janie
"Air-dried duck breast is a great delicacy, but one which is often hard to find. This one was among the very best, and well-worth the price. I highly recommend it!"(Posted on 4/22/10)
