100% Iberian Breed, Highest Quality

100% Iberian, 100% Excellence. Quality is at the heart of everything we do. Every decision, every process, and every product is guided by a single commitment: delivering exclusively 100% Iberian products of the highest standard.

We have built our entire philosophy around this principle: working exclusively with 100% Iberian breed pigs, adhering to the most demanding quality standards and supported by one of Spain’s most prestigious and rigorous Protected Designations of Origin.

We believe in purity, tradition, and authenticity. Every product reflects our dedication to preserving the true essence of Iberian gastronomy while achieving exceptional levels of quality, traceability, and consistency.

For us, offering anything less is simply not an option.

21,000 Hectares of Freedom and Authenticity

Exactly 21,000 hectares no more, no less. We are privileged to manage 21,000 hectares in the heart of the dehesa of Extremadura, one of the most unique and valuable natural ecosystems in Europe.

Here, each of our Iberian pigs enjoys between 2 and 3 hectares of open pastureland, roaming freely in an exceptional natural environment while feeding on the acorns produced by our holm oaks and cork oaks.

We do not produce a single Iberian pig that cannot be overseen by our own eyes or fed by our own acorns.

This philosophy defines everything we do.

We carefully oversee every stage of the process, from animal selection and nutrition to the montanera season and the final curing of our products. Our commitment to complete control ensures exceptional consistency, traceability, and quality throughout the entire production chain.

One of our key differentiating factors is our own feed mill, where we produce a natural, high-quality cereal-based feed specifically formulated to ensure healthy, strong animals before they transition to their natural diet of acorns and wild herbs during the montanera season in the dehesa.

This unique combination of extensive free-range farming, natural resources, and complete production control allows us to create authentic Iberian products that truly reflect the richness of Extremadura and the excellence of the Iberian tradition.

Protected DOP & Traditional Production Process

Only a select number of Iberian pigs meet the strict standards required by the D.O.P. Dehesa de Extremadura, one of Spain’s most prestigious and demanding quality certifications.

To achieve this distinction, it is not enough for the animals to be raised in extensive dehesa pastures with approximately 160 productive oak trees available per pig. Every stage of the production process must also comply with rigorous quality and traceability requirements.

Natural Curing Process

Our Iberian hams undergo a slow and entirely natural curing process that can last between 3 and 4 years.

Throughout this period, each piece passes through carefully controlled natural drying rooms, where the unique airflow conditions allow the ham to develop the perfect balance of salting, aroma, texture, and flavor.

The hams then spend extended periods in traditional curing cellars, where time, patience, and the natural environment work together to create the distinctive character, complexity, and elegance that define premium Iberian ham.

A Symbol of Quality, Tradition & Excellence

Whether purchased for personal enjoyment or given as an exceptional gift, a 100% Iberian Acorn-Fed Ham certified by D.O.P. Dehesa de Extremadura is always a guarantee of quality, authenticity, craftsmanship, and the rich gastronomic heritage of Extremadura.

It represents generations of expertise, respect for tradition, and an unwavering commitment to producing some of the finest Iberian products in the world.
