# Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1185/2013 of 21 November 2013 entering a name in the register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications (Pâté de Campagne Breton (PGI)), Division 5.1: Specificity of the geographical area

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Historic Brittany corresponds to the traditional production area of ‘Pâté de Campagne Breton’. Brittany has a centuries-long charcuterie-making tradition. In the days of Ducal Brittany in the 16th century, Breton families slaughtered their pigs and made their own cured meats.
Bretons have turned this distinctive factor to good use in the production of a wide variety of charcuterie products, in particular ‘Pâté de Campagne Breton’, which made it possible to avoid wasting offal and meat leftovers from the cutting up of a pig.
