The classic combination of cured meat and melon reaches through the haze of time to Rome in the second century, and it proves to be as popular among today’s foodies. Summer Haze’s notes of lavender and wild fennel pollen meld with the tangy notes from Cypress Grove Purple Haze® chevre. We marry this artisan cheese with our own premium Prosciutto, a cube of fresh cantaloupe, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Salty and sweet, filled with umami goodness and floral undertones, Summer Haze is a fresh update—a Perfect Charcuterie Bite for the ages.

ABOUT COLUMBUS® PROSCIUTTO
COLUMBUS® Prosciutto is like no other prosciutto you have tasted before. We take the highest quality, fresh hams, hand-rub them with a hint of salt, and air dry them. Once they’re cured, the final product is a lean prosciutto that pairs well with other foods (like wrapping around a melon slice).
