César Nieto, a distinguished Spanish jamón producer, offers the Jamón de Bellota 100% Ibérico DOP Guijuelo, a product that epitomizes the rich tradition and exceptional quality of Spanish charcuterie. This jamón is certified under the DOP Guijuelo, ensuring adherence to stringent quality standards and traditional production methods unique to the Guijuelo region.
Crafted from 100% purebred Iberian pigs, these animals are raised freely in the dehesas of Salamanca and Extremadura, feasting on a natural diet of acorns (bellotas) and herbs during the Montanera period, which contributes to the jamón's distinctive flavor.
The jamón undergoes a meticulous curing process exceeding 36 months, resulting in a product with a characteristic color ranging from dark purple to rosy pink, and a flavor profile that is both intense and aromatic.
