Juan Pedro Domecq

Award winning 100% Bellota Iberico pork from Jabugo, Spain. Juan Pedro Domecq offers some of the finest ham products to be found in the Iberian peninsular. The pigs are free to roam in acres of acorn woods to give that distinctive taste and quality you expect.

Juan Pedro Domecq is a family owned company and pioneer's in the ham business. With their 100 years of breeding know-how they only produce 100% pure "lampiño" pigs, as after years of genetic studies they are considered the best for making Iberico ham. The company controls all stages of production, from the breeding and rearing of their exclusive breed '100% pure Iberico pigs'.

The pigs are free to roam in the Dehesa, the Acorn woods for at least 21 months and it is those acorns that make up the bulk of their diet before slaughter, boosting their fat production and flavour.

The company's tradition and know-how that has resulted in a very singular Iberico pig is based on their genetic studies, in search of the ideal breed to produce the best Iberico meat. Their meat is very juicy, tender with a inimitable taste.

Their hams are naturally cured in the company's own cellars in the Jabugo area for 42 months under the constant care of their Master Ham-maker. The Pure Iberco Bellota has has a stunning flavour, lovely and sweet, a beautiful aroma and a tender, not too fatty texture. Their hams in pre-sliced packs have been hand-carved to ensure the perfect thickness so it melts in the mouth.

Beyond the highest quality Juan Pedro Domecq only has a limited production each year to assure only the finest products, resulting in achieving 3 stars at the great taste awards 4 years in a row.
