The Authentic Taste of Montaraz Sliced Iberico Ham – Pure Tradition and Exquisite Flavor

Free Range and Acorn-Fed Iberico Ham from Spain

Indulge in the exquisite flavors of Montaraz Sliced Ibérico Ham de Bellota, crafted from pure-breed Iberico pigs raised freely and acorn-fed during the montanera season. These pigs roam the PDO Extremadura pastures, where their diet of acorns imparts the unique, nutty flavor that defines this gourmet ham. The hams are aged naturally for over three years in traditional drying sheds, ensuring they are perfectly cured to bring out their full potential.

From Extremadura, Spain

At Montaraz, we have been guardians since 1890—across five generations—of a unique and 100% natural process, free from additives and preservatives. Thanks to our method, which involves only sea salt and a slow, controlled curing process in our natural drying sheds, we achieve a sublime ham with an intense aroma and unparalleled flavor.

Each Montaraz product originates from the finest specimens of Iberian pigs raised in the Extremadura dehesa. Half of our hams and shoulders are cured in Salamanca, while the other half undergoes the process in Olivenza. This results in two distinct 'types' of Montaraz. The milder climate of Salamanca yields hams and shoulders with a delicate flavor profile. In Extremadura, with its higher temperatures, the final product exhibits a more intense flavor. However, both locations produce unique pieces, 100% natural, with only two ingredients added to the meat: salt and time. There is no room for any nitrites, nitrates, or allergens in our products.
