We are excited to introduce Les Bistronomes mini dried sausages (saucissons as they are called in France)!
Made with premium pork and traditional spices, these savory snacks are perfect for a quick bite or as an apéritif treat with wine and cheese. Our selection features four different flavors: plain, Espelette pepper, porcini, and goat cheese.
Québec-based Les Bistronomes is a longstanding importer of charcuterie and dried sausages from Europe. It has now partnered with a renowned upstate New York producer to delight American foodies.
Enjoy the flavors. Take good care of yourself.
