This exceptional jamón is crafted from purebred Iberian pigs that roam freely in the dehesas, feeding on acorns during the montanera season. The hams undergo a natural curing process ranging from 36 to 48 months, resulting in a product weighing approximately 8 kilograms.
In 2022, this jamón was honored with the title of "Best Iberian Ham in Spain" at the Alimentos de España awards, organized by the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, and Food. Notably, it is the only ham recommended by esteemed chef Martín Berasategui, who holds 12 Michelin stars.
