Ibéricos Domecq: When the Acorn Becomes a Luxury

Ibéricos Domecq

In 1730 the Domecq family arrived in Spain. A surname closely associated with the production of high-quality food and wines, such as sherry and brandies. A knowledge passed down from parents to children. Always accompanied by their second passion, raising animals in the open, like 100% Iberian pigs. In 1970 Juan Pedro Domecq Solís began breeding the 100% Iberian pig on his Seville estate Lo Álvaro. In an ambitious search to create the most exquisite ham, Juan Pedro relied on various studies carried out in collaboration with several Spanish universities. The result is a unique variety: the 100% Iberian mammellada-lampiña pig. His 100% acorn‑fed Iberian ham, “Pata Negra,” by Juan Pedro Domecq has been awarded three stars at the Great Taste Awards since 2014, that is, the highest possible score. Without a doubt, this is the kind of product I like to serve when our friends come for dinner. It will always make you look good. Its carefully tended exterior appearance in the Iberian products or the pre‑sliced packs is a sign that before tasting this marvel, you’ll be excited just seeing how well it’s protected on the outside. In the hills of the Sierra de Huelva, thirty minutes from Jabugo, lies the Lo Álvaro dehesa, where Juan Pedro Domecq’s pigs are raised. On our website you’ll find all their products, from sliced packs to whole pieces. Because you are a gourmet and want Only the Best. So Ibéricos Domecq is your choice. Because “Made in Spain” is Quality [caption id="attachment_28864" align="aligncenter" width="800"]Ibéricos Domecq: when the acorn becomes a luxury 100% Acorn‑Fed Iberian Ham Domecq[/caption]
