Technical data:
Their pigs spend the first stage of their lives on their farm, feeding on natural cereals made in their facilities until they reach a weight of between 40 and 50kg, when they access the pastures.
There, they enjoy an exquisite diet composed of this selection of cereals in addition to grass, tubers, roots, and acorns, reaching 90/100kg in early October (when the montanera begins), a moment when the acorns fall and they feed exclusively on them until reaching an approximate weight of 180kg in their adult stage. This is essential to maintain the Iberian breed and be able to call it acorn-fed Iberian.
These Iberian hams, due to the breed that characterizes them and their exquisite diet, have a cane of elongated and stylized shape with a golden and fluid fat on their outer part, while on their inner part they show a pink and melting appearance that floods the mouth with intense and prolonged nuances.
Tasting note
In the 100% Iberian Acorn-fed Ham Oro "Pata Negra" we discover a ruby red hue, a delicate grain, and a high percentage of oleic acid that helps maintain an adequate level of cholesterol in the blood, as well as being rich in proteins, vitamin B1, iron, zinc, magnesium, folic acid, and vitamin E (excellent antioxidant). On the nose, we recognize intense and pleasant aromas exclusive to the 100% Iberian acorn-fed ham, characteristic of its character and personality. In the mouth, we appreciate an intense and persistent flavor with a characteristic sweetness of the 100% Iberian Acorn-fed Ham Oro BEHER due to a reduction in the salting time and long maturation, achieving a healthier and tastier product, pleasant to all palates.
