La Castanyissa: the taste of a recovered wisdom
Some products are more than something you eat: they tell of a landscape, a tradition and a way of understanding the land. La Castanyissa is born from this partnership and recovers age-old knowledge.

Some products are simply eaten, and others are told. La Castanyissa belongs to this second group. It is not just a cured sausage; it is the result of a union of intentions, a way of understanding the land, and the return of a practice that time had left forgotten.
This project is born from the partnership between El Soler d'en Hug and La Castanya, two ventures that share the same DNA: respect for one's roots and the pursuit of essence in everything we do.
An ancestral bond: the pig and the chestnut
In the past, the rhythm of the mountains was set by what the land offered each season. The chestnut did not only feed people — it was also a key part of raising pigs. It was a coherent, natural practice, free of artifice, that made circular use of the resources of the surrounding land.
With La Castanyissa, we recover this knowledge:
- Identity through diet: the pigs are fattened on chestnuts, a fact that connects directly with tradition and makes all the difference in the final product.
- Respect for time: quality is never rushed. The curing process is carried out slowly, respecting natural cycles so that each piece can develop its own unique character.
A cured sausage with a personality of its own
The result of this craft and patience is a product that seeks to imitate no other. La Castanyissa has a defined personality: a deep, balanced flavor full of nuances that speak of its origin.
It is a cured sausage that expresses the landscape where it was born. In every slice, you will find the sum of a territory, a recovered tradition, and a craftsmanship that champions authenticity.
More than a product, a story you can taste
La Castanyissa is proof that, when we join forces and look to the past with respect, we are capable of creating products for the future with an unmistakable identity.
