Acorn-fed Iberic Ham
Acorn-fed 100% Iberico Shoulder - 100% Natural
The 100% Iberico Bellota Shoulders come from pure Iberian pigs,
fed on acorns and herbs in our meadows in Extremadura and cured
following the recipes of our grandparents since 1930 based on
the popular Extremaduran tradition of making Iberian products,
always 100% natural.
Certified with a black seal, as established by the quality standard
for Iberian ham, shoulder and loin. Royal Decree 4/2014
A shoulder is distinguished, Pure acorn-fed for having a pale golden
exterior fat color due to a slow and natural maturation in the cellar,
its lean meat is intense red with light infiltrations of fat that go
from a more intense white to one more broken, giving it a unique
smoothness to the touch and on the palate. If we press with our thumb
and slide it over it without excessive pressure, we will observe that
it has sunk in relatively easily and has left a deep mark that will
later recover its shape, this is so because it is a pure acorn-fed
shoulder. Its aroma is intense and balanced due to a long maturation
process. As it contains a greater amount of acorns, it requires a longer
curing period but at the same time its maturation is more exquisite and
sweeter on the palate, which together with its lower salt level provides
a sensation of juiciness and an explosion of flavor in slow chewing.
