FAQs

Many products labeled as “Ibérico” are actually crossbreeds. Our ham comes from 100% purebred Ibérico pigs — no mixing. This means deeper flavor, better marbling, and a truly authentic gourmet experience.

Time is our secret ingredient. We cure every ham slowly and naturally in the clean mountain air at over 3,000 feet above sea level. No rush. Just patience, which enhances the flavor, texture, and digestibility.

We raise our own pigs and oversee every step — from breeding and feeding to curing and slicing. No middlemen. No shortcuts. Just tradition, full transparency, and quality you can taste.

In Guijuelo, Spain — a mountain town world-famous for its ideal curing climate. The cold, dry air of Guijuelo gives our ham its unmistakable character.

The difference lies in the cut: Jamón Ibérico comes from the back legs of the pig, while Paleta Ibérica is from the front legs. Jamón is larger, cures for longer, and has a smoother, more balanced flavor. Paleta is smaller, with a more intense, concentrated taste.

If whole, keep it in a cool, dry place. Once opened, cover with a clean cloth and consume within 3–6 weeks. If pre-sliced, store in the fridge and let it rest at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before serving.

Yes. The fat in 100% Ibérico ham is rich in oleic acid, the same heart-healthy fat found in olive oil. It’s naturally high in protein, low in sugar, and contains no preservatives or additives.

We offer professional carving kits with everything you need: a Spanish ham stand (jamonero), a long carving knife, and a honing steel — the same tools used by master carvers. You’ll find them available in our Accessories section or bundled with some of our whole ham packs.

Yes! We ship nationwide within the U.S. with secure, temperature-conscious packaging to ensure everything arrives in perfect condition. Standard and expedited options available at checkout.

Yes! We offer flexible subscriptions so you never run out of Ibérico at home, and luxury gift sets for holidays, birthdays, or business occasions. Few gifts impress more than award-winning Spanish ham.

During the final months of their lives, our pigs roam freely in oak forests and feed on acorns (bellotas). This diet gives the meat its rich, nutty flavor and its high content of healthy fats, similar to olive oil.
