The Sagra della Salsiccia Rossa of Castelpoto is an authentic experience celebrating one of the most iconic products of the Benevento culinary tradition. This annual event brings together food enthusiasts and curious visitors eager to discover the secrets of a distinctively flavored sausage, deeply rooted in local history and culture. Castelpoto's red sausage represents the perfect marriage of prime ingredients and artisanal craftsmanship passed down through generations.

At the heart of this festival is the celebration of an uncompromising production process: pork from animals raised in the region is hand-worked according to strict standards, without artificial additives or preservatives. The drying phase, performed exclusively with natural smoke, gives the product its unique flavor and characteristic smokiness that makes it instantly recognizable to the palate.

During the festival, visitors have the opportunity to taste the sausage in various preparations, from traditional consumption to contemporary dishes that showcase its qualities. An unmissable occasion to immerse yourself in Campanian gastronomy, meet local producers, and understand how tradition continues to thrive through food.
