Menu / Nuestras carnes del Valle de los Pedroches / Cerdo de Montanera 100% ibérico
Our Alta Expresión Acorn-fed 100% Ibérico Pork selection features a range of exceptionally high-quality meats that boast an incomparable flavour together with a unique texture, tenderness and juiciness.
These qualities are synonymous with our 100% Ibérico Breed pigs, reared in fully free-range environment on the pastures of the Pedroches Valley – a one-of-a-kind environment – and fed on a diet of herbs and acorns during the fattening season (Montanera). This magical season, which runs from November to February, falls at the same time as the last phase of feeding of our animals, during which ripe acorns provide the meat with a full range of organoleptic and nutritious benefits.
A cut from the latissimus dorsi muscle in the back, known as a “secret” as it is well hidden between the shoulder, ribs and belly. It is characterized by its fat content that is perfectly distributed throughout the piece, providing it with a firm, smooth and surprising texture.
