FROM THE BEGINNING
SELECTION AND CONSTANT IMPROVEMENT
We look for the regularity and excellence of our hams and shoulders . This is only achieved due to the constant improvement of livestock processes, the careful selection of genetics and the privileged location of the pastures.
the perfect ecosystem
LA DEHESA
Raised in the greatest freedom, our Iberian pig enjoys long walks surrounded by holm and cork oaks. Walk around 10 and 12 km daily
The pasture is the only ecosystem where it is possible to raise the acorn-fed Iberian pig.
During the montanera, which occurs in autumn and winter, the Iberian pigs feed on the acorns and pastures of the pasture, which contributes to the quality and distinctive flavor of the acorn-fed Iberian ham.
Our Iberian pigs are raised between Salamanca, Extremadura, Seville and Huelva.
FEEDING
THE ACORN AND OTHER NATURAL RESOURCES
The diet of an Iberian pig in montanera is based solely on acorns and other natural resources only present in the Dehesa.
An Iberian pig eats around 10 kg of acorns per day, which allows them to gain 1 kg per day.
This diet gives Iberian ham organoleptic properties that are impossible to recreate with another type of diet.
