Iberian pork prized for its marbling

Bellota Iberian pork is renowned for its marbling and rich flavour. Iberian pigs reared in the dehesas are fed, during the montanera, a diet comprising acorns and natural plant matter.

These rearing conditions contribute to the meat’s characteristics, which are particularly sought after for the production of high-quality Iberian cured meats.

A typical seasoning in Spanish cured meats

Chorizo owes much of its character to paprika, a traditional spice that gives it its red colour and distinctive aromas.

The combination of Iberian meat and seasonings creates a balance between the flavours of the meat and the spicy notes, resulting in a taste experience rich in character.

A curing process that brings out its full character

During the curing process, the chorizo gradually develops its characteristic flavours and texture.

This maturing process results in a cured meat with concentrated flavours, a pleasant texture and a lovely lingering aroma.

Each slice thus reveals the harmony between Bellota Iberian pork and the traditional chorizo spices.

A speciality to share as an aperitif
