Ibérico Cebo de Campo Shoulder Ham “Sierra de Codex”

Ibérico Cebo de Campo Shoulder Ham (pastured and fed a combination of acorns and grain), (50% Ibérico Breed)

The Sierra de Codex Ibérico Cebo de Campo Shoulder Ham is obtained after the traditional salting, curing and maturing of the extreme ends of our very best Ibérico pigs, which are the result of the best cross-breading, reaching ratios of up to 50% Ibérico breed. These pigs are fed natural grains and fodder in a controlled environment: farms that are selected by us due to the quality of their production and painstaking handling.

Curing of hams is a slow and lengthy process in which the most traditional methods are used in our natural drying sheds found in Guijuelo. Due to the altitude and cold microclimate of Guijuelo, salting of the hams is less heavy handed than in other ham producing areas. Thus the almost sweet nuance that first appears on the palate.

Its flavor is mellow and delicate, with more intensity than the Ham due to its shorter curing period, yet not quite as rich in nuances. Its aroma, fine and pleasant, is also unmistakable and many are the loyal fans of this variety, to the point of preferring these shoulder hams over any other Ibérico product.
