WET AND / OR FATTY BILTONG

Biltong is judged subjectively by each person.  Our definition of wet may differ from yours and likewise, fatty.  We will always do our best to select the right biltong according to your order.   We send out the biltong in the most appropriate way and the storage after receipt needs to be very carefully monitored.  Wet and fatty biltong requires further drying to allow for the curing process to continue.  If it is not consumed immediately, it needs to be in open, moving air.  Obviously it is unwise to consume large amounts of fatty biltong at one time.
