The Rolls Royce of raw hams, the patanegra de Bellota signed BY DEHESA has been sublimated by raising the standards of maturation and curing to an unequalled level. 
 
EXCLUSIVE PRODUCT 
Pigs of the Iberico breed (100% or 75%), which gives the hams their tenderness and intense marbling.
Raised in the richest dehesas in Spain for a gourmet diet and a sublimated fat of our patanegra! Our pigs are reared in the middle of the dehesa and are doubled at 24-36 months so that they can enjoy two seasons of Bellota. 
The maturing in the mountain air, doubled from 42 to 82 months, ensures a structured, delicate taste without any hint of salt.
