The family business Campisi was founded in 1854 in Marzamemi (SR) , in a small village steeped in traditions associated with fish processing. Linked to the sea for over a century , Salvatore Campisi produces and processes a wide range of fish products from Bluefin Tuna , Swordfish , Amberjack , the precious bottarga (roe), mosciame ( tuna ham ) to the transformation of the catch into pestos and pates . The use of ancient techniques dating back to the Arab period, refined over time in the small village of Marzamemi, drying and aging of tuna products in a suitable climate, made Salvatore Campisi worthy of being considered one of the last connoisseurs of almost extinct traditions, deserving protection and recognition. Campisi affirms: "Our goal is to continually search for products that have created the history of our land. In the month of July we will launch the famous Garum Excellens , a condiment made from fresh local fish and spices used by the ancient Romans in the fifth century . Campisi is highly sought-after by connoisseurs of traditional cuisine . "
