Division 3.7 Specific rules concerning labelling

The protected designation of origin ‘Prosciutto Toscano’ must be included on the label in clear and indelible characters, distinctly separate from any other writing. It must be followed immediately by the words ‘Denominazione di origine protetta’ or the abbreviation ‘DOP’. Nothing which is not expressly permitted may be added. It is nevertheless permitted to add information referring to names, trade names or private marks, except where these are laudatory in character or likely to mislead the buyer. Similarly, the name of the farm where the pigs were reared which supplied the products may be shown on the leg, provided that the raw material comes entirely from the livestock in question.
