Jamón de Bellota 100 % Ibérico is a premium quality Spanish ham produced by Jamones Eíriz. This exceptional ham comes from purebred Ibérico pigs that are raised in the lush pastures of the Jabugo region in Spain, renowned for its ideal climatic conditions.
The pigs are acorn-fed (bellota) during the montanera season, which lasts from October to February, contributing to the ham's rich, nutty flavor and marbled texture. The curing process for this ham is meticulous and traditionally spans three to four years, allowing the flavors to develop fully and achieve an unparalleled depth.
The designation PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) Jabugo guarantees that the ham adheres to strict production standards and is produced in the Jabugo area.
