To my Father
Love for the Extremadura dehesa and for things well done
It all started with my father's dream of buying a "dehesa" (pastureland) in Extremadura and producing the best acorn-fed Iberian pork in the world for his grandchildren to enjoy... Now, more than twenty years later, we continue his legacy with the same enthusiasm.
We lovingly and dedicatedly care for our 25 purebred Iberian pigs from the time they are piglets until their "San Martín" (slaughtering day). They live like kings on our family dehesa of nearly 200 hectares, bathing whenever they like in their pond, which we keep full all year round, roaming freely through the fields all day, which allows the fat to infiltrate the muscle, and resting in their "quedá" (shelter) with a roof insulated from heat and cold.
If you would like to visit us and see our way of doing things first-hand, you can stay at our tourist accommodation located in Cortijo Los Lomillos, which you can see in the image on the right. Access more information through the link in the main menu.
Our hams, paletas (shoulder hams), cured meats, and fresh meats are the result of a job well done, without rush, from the excellent care given to a few 100% Iberian pigs that live freely in our well-kept Extremaduran dehesa, from which they obtain their most prized food, the acorn, and from a second-generation master artisan who prepares and cures all our products with professionalism and experience, using only natural seasonings (paprika, salt, and garlic), without any additives in any of them (except for salchichonal, in salchichón)
