Félix Battaglia, a producer of traditional Corsican charcuterie and a farmer, took over the family business in 1997. Following in his father's footsteps, Félix learnt the trade, and now owns a Porcu Nustrale farm with 80 head of cattle.

With the help of his wife Marie-Catherine Casanova Battaglia, together they have led their production of Corsican charcuterie to PDO status for sausage, coppa and lonzu, and PGI status for sausage, panzetta, figatellu and Bulagna.

Porcu nustrale breeding

The pigs live in the hills above Murato, in a beautiful chestnut grove. The pigs are fed acorns and chestnuts, supplemented with grain. In compliance with PDO standards, the farm follows precise specifications from the birth of the piglets to slaughter, which starts in mid-December, right through to processing and maturing.

Guided tour immersed in pastoral life

Since 2020, between May and October, Félix and Marie-Catherine have been offering you the chance to get to the heart of their work as farmers, sharing with you moments of exchange and discovery through an immersive walk around a picnic of products from their own production and that of the Casanova cheese dairy: scheccette, charcuterie, cheese, wine and water.

  • Stage 1: The route starts mid-morning in the village of Vallecalle with a visit to the Casanova sheep farm and its goat and ewe breeding. Depending on the season, you can watch the milking.
  • Stage 2: You'll then head for the village of Murato, with a stop at the famous Church of Saint-Michel.
  • Stage 3: Finally, on the heights of the village of Murato in the heart of the mountains, you'll arrive at the farm for a picnic under the chestnut trees, with the pig farm below.

This is an ideal excursion for families or friends, so don't hesitate to book directly by e-mail or telephone. Prices are €30 per person.
