River Charcuterie Boards

Our River Charcuterie Boards are generally made with three types of wood. We have chosen Olive Wood, Ambrosia Maple and Walnut as the wood we use in creating our River Charcuterie Boards.

Olive Wood - hard and rich in color wood that is prized all around the world for its appearance, density, straight grain, and fine texture.

Ambrosia Maple - Ambrosia Maple is Soft Maple with a cream colored background which is host to a variety of greyish-blue to brown streaks that are caused by an infestation of the ambrosia beetle. The beetle burrows into the tree and leaves a fungus in it’s path, which is what creates the discoloration in the wood and create a very unique pattern in each board

Black Walnut - Black walnut wood is dark, hard, dense and tight-grained. It's prized for its strength, grain and color. It polishes to a very smooth finish, and the color ranges from creamy white in the sapwood to a dark chocolate in the heartwood.
