A Family Recipe Perfectered Over a Century — Bringing you the World’s Most Awarded Ibérico Flavor.
Since the early 1930s, the Hernández family has been dedicated to perfecting the true flavor of 100% Ibérico products, so you can enjoy a unique experience of flavor, texture, and authenticity.
Our story begins when Bernardo Hernández Blázquez, founder of BEHER, began crafting and selling artisanal Ibérico products in Guijuelo, Spain. Thanks to his passion for authenticity and excellence, today you can savor the essence of a century-old tradition.
In the 1970s, his son Bernardo Hernández García took over, driving BEHER's growth and international expansion. He incorporated the breeding of 100% pure Ibérico pigs, ensuring that every piece you enjoy results from generations of genetic improvement for an unsurpassed flavor.
At the turn of the century, under the leadership of the third generation with Bernardo and Jorge Hernández Tinoco, BEHER achieved full control of the production process: from breeding to curing and sales. This ensures you receive products of the highest quality and full traceability, directly from origin to your table.
Today, with the fourth generation taking the reins, we continue working to offer you the very best of the Ibérico world, embracing new technologies and trends without losing the authenticity that makes every bite an unforgettable experience.
Generations perfecting a single purpose: bringing the purest Ibérico flavor to your table. That’s BEHER.
Free-Range Ibérico Pigs, Acorn-Fed — The Secret Behind Our Pure, Authentic Flavor.
At BEHER, we don’t buy pigs. We raise them.
And not just anywhere — but on over 2,000 hectares of our own dehesa, where our animals roam free, feeding on acorns and natural pasture.
It all starts with excellence at the source:
We care for more than 3,000 purebred 100% Iberian pigs,
carefully selected for their genetics to ensure consistency in lineage,
quality, and the rich marbling that gives our ham its unforgettable,
melt-in-your-mouth texture.
We oversee every step of the process — from breeding and feeding to curing and slicing. No middlemen. No shortcuts.
This isn’t just a method. It’s a philosophy. A way of honoring jamón as
a living product that deserves time, care, and tradition.
Because when you taste BEHER, you’re tasting a legacy of a family with almost a 100.
And it all begins here:
With the finest Iberian pigs, raised in freedom… by us.
Cured for Three Years at 3,300 Feet in the Spanish Mountains — For a Depth of Flavor You Can Taste in Every Bite.
At over 3,300 feet above sea level, Guijuelo has something you can’t manufacture:clean, dry, cold air. Winter after winter, summer after summer, that climate does what no industrial fridge ever could.
While others rush the process with machines, we let our ham mature slowly — the way it’s always been done.
No shortcuts. No tricks. Just time, tradition, and deep respect for the craft.
That’s where the fat melts in just right, the flavor intensifies.
The world’s most awarded Ibérico Ham
Some say that Ibérico ham is judged by its flavor, texture, aroma…
We believe it’s also recognized for the work, the consistency, and an almost obsessive commitment to doing things right.
Since 2001, at the IFFA Fair in Frankfurt —the world’s most prestigious meat industry event— we’ve been awarded 130 times.
Yes, one hundred and thirty.
Gold, silver, bronze. Years like 2013 and 2016 where we swept the board. And we don’t say this to brag. We say it because it says a lot about who we are.
But that’s not all.
We’ve also been named Best Acorn-Fed Ham in Castile and León on three occasions.
We’ve won the National “Salón del Jamón” Award, the Gold Medal at the SUFFA Fair in Stuttgart, La Posada Award from El Mundo for the best business project in Salamanca…
And even the judges at the LiderPack Awards liked our packaging so much, they gave that a prize too.
Is this the most important thing? No.
What really matters is what lies behind it:
A team that’s been working tirelessly for years so that when someone tastes a BEHER product, they simply say:
“This is on another level.”
