BISON
Bison has a high protein and iron content, resulting in a unique culinary experience. Our bison meat comes from the natural habitat of these animals, specifically the prairies of Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, Utah, Kansas, Montana, as well as North and South Dakota. The bison are semi-wild, roaming on expansive landscapes where they naturally graze on grasses and 180 different herbs. On these farms, the animals adhere to American organic standards, and their diet of natural forage contributes to a flavorful, slightly sweetened taste in the meat.

ORIGINAL WALLISER DRY AGED ERINGER OLD COW
The Eringer cows are one of the smallest breeds in Europe, known for their agility and fighting spirit. On the Alpage de Mille in Val de Bagnes, these animals spend the summer, nourishing themselves with lush grass and aromatic mountain herbs. Sustainability, nature-oriented breeding methods, and the preservation of the Swiss cultural landscape have inspired us to offer the meat of this breed. We age the Eringer meat on the bone, allowing us to “get the maximum potential out of the meat.” It may not be as popular or necessarily the most tender meat, but in terms of taste, it’s phenomenal. Once you try it, you’ll be delighted.
Breed: Walliser Eringer
Slaughter Age: 8-10 years
Feeding: Gras, herbs and hay
Aging: 6-8 weeks dry aged in house
VICTOR’S CHARRA BEEF
Charra cattle – a mix of Morucha and French Charolais breeds – live on Victor Molino’s expansive fields in Salamanca and feed on juicy acorns, grass and herbs.

SWISS LUMA PORK
For this unique, healthy Swiss pork, the pedigree pigs are fed with natural products and a large amount of linseed. As a result, Omega-3 fatty acids – which are important for the human body – form in the pork fat. In the LUMA process, the meat matures on the bone for up to 35 days with the addition of a noble mold. The cuts then develop an unmistakable aroma, leading to a taste experience that is absolutely one of a kind.

CARLOS PATA NEGRA „BELLOTA“
Imagine having one hectare of land per animal. If you take a four -room apartment in Switzerland measuring 100 square meters, then each of Carlos Gonzales’ Iberico pigs lives on land covering 100 of these apartments. The pigs are reared in the oak forests of Salamanca. When the acorns drop in the fall, each pig eats around 6 kilos per day. Thanks to this special menu, the meat develops a delicate, slightly nutty aroma and strong marbling, thus allowing it to reach the highest grade – “Bellota”.
Breed: Pata Negra Bellota
Slaughter age: 2-2.5 years
Feeding: acorns and herbs
Aging: wet aged, min. 3 weeks
NEW ZEALAND LAMB
Our New Zealand lamb is sourced from certified, sustainable farms and is available all year round in the highest quality. The animals live on lush, expansive meadows between the sea and mountains. The lamb is a delicacy among connoisseurs and impresses thanks to its mild flavor and tenderness.
APPENZELLER RIBELMAIS CHICKEN
Our Ribelmais chicken originates from the French Sasso breed (Label Rouge). The animals are reared in small flocks and have a lot of space outdoors to exercise in. The chickens are bred for twice as long as normal, which leads to a sensational meat quality. In addition to slow growth, this is also thanks to the animals being fed almost exclusively with Rheintaler Ribelmais corn.

Slaughter Age: 2-3 months

LUMA SALMON

The fish used for LUMA smoked salmon comes from a farm certified by Friends of the Sea (FOS) on Loch Canaird in northwest Scotland.
