Señorio de Montanera 100% Iberian acorn-fed Pata Negra ham, hand-sliced, 50 g

Origin and rearing of the Iberian pig

The 100% Iberian bellota Pata Negra Señorio de Montanera ham comes from pure-bred Iberian pigs reared free-range in the dehesas of south-western Spain. These landscapes of holm oaks provide an ideal environment for the extensive rearing of Iberian pigs. During the montanera, the animals feed mainly on acorns and natural resources, which contributes to the exceptional quality of the meat and its characteristic marbling.

The Señorio de Montanera expertise

Señorio de Montanera is now regarded as one of the leading names in the production of bellota Iberian ham. The company relies on a rigorous selection of animals and production methods that respect tradition in order to produce hams of great consistency and remarkable quality.

Slow and natural curing

After salting, the hams are slowly matured in natural cellars for a period of up to several years. For bellota hams, the maturing process generally lasts between 36 and 48 months. This gradual maturing allows a supple texture and a rich, balanced flavour profile to develop.

Traditional knife-cutting

The ham is sliced by hand to preserve the structure of the whole leg and bring out its natural qualities. This method produces thin slices that reveal the ham’s melt-in-the-mouth texture and the richness of its delicately flavoured fat.
