Micco brothers butcher in Moncalvo, few kilometers from Cascina rosa b&b
On the main square of Moncalvo, the village opposite the hill of Madonna dei Monti and Cascina rosa b&b, there is a small shop that has kept the atmosphere of a time and a little space on the walls of the store because of all the awards won over the years: the butcher of Micco brothers.
It ‘hard to convey in a text something you can only experience by tasting their product. In Monferrato, area of the Fassone Piemontese Cattle Breed, Micco brothers are an example of absolute excellence. Their animals are all born and raised in Italy, with food that comes from their land and with a life cycle that respects the animal: when they are grazing on the hill in fact you can also seeand hear them from Cascina rosa, being the farm halfway between Moncalvo and Madonna dei Monti.
The hill next to the farm: in front of Cascina rosa b&b – Micco Piedmont beef
In addition to all this they hold annual events at their farm spreading and promoting the Cattle Breed from Piedmont with speeches from experts and veterinaries having their say about the cattle breed native of Piedmont . Of course all their finest cuts are cooked and served, sometimes also in special ways (eg Asado).
In situations like these, concepts as the attention to quality, to authenticity, to sustainability and to the short chain are reconciled and are expressed in a final product of the highest quality.
Fassone Piemontese – Micco
The story of their company begins in 1982, when Lauro detects the butcher in Piazza Garibaldi in Moncalvo, hence began their company.
Lauro captures the passion from his father, Carlo, and turns into craft and profession, so in 1993 bought the farm, where there is now the breeding, and become one of the few butchers of the surroundings with a own herd.
