Iberico de Bellota
Iberico de Bellota is a premium type of cured ham from Spain, made from the Iberian pig. These pigs are raised in the wild, primarily in the Dehesa woodlands, where they feed on acorns, which gives the ham its unique flavor and rich marbling.
The term "Bellota" refers to the acorns that the pigs consume during the final months of their life. This diet contributes to the ham's distinctive taste and texture, making it highly sought after by chefs and food enthusiasts worldwide. Iberico de Bellota is often enjoyed thinly sliced and served with bread or on its own.
