Thank you — your request has been sent, we will reply shortly.
From 100% Iberico pigs raised free-range on the Blázquez family dehesas in Extremadura, Andalucía and Salamanca. During the Montanera, from autumn to winter, they feed on the acorns of cork and holm oaks.
Each piece is salted under controlled conditions, then slowly cured, first in rooms, then in a natural drying shed in Guijuelo, the cradle of Iberico ham.
Tasting: ruby-red meat, finely marbled with infiltrated fat; aromas of hazelnut, acorn and toasted dried fruit, with a hint of undergrowth; melt-in-the-mouth texture and a long finish.
The shoulder: slimmer and narrower than the ham, it offers deliciously marbled meat and a powerful flavour, with a shorter cure. An ideal choice for a tapas menu.
Serving: at room temperature, sliced very thinly by knife.
Our Iberico shoulders are sold by the piece, at the actual weight of the piece received — the final price is confirmed upon weighing, at the time of order.
Price: on request, contact us for a current per-kg rate.

Founded in 1932 in Crespos, Castile and León, by Isidoro Blázquez and Teresa Martín, Jamones Blázquez is now in its fourth generation. Their son Jacinto was already buying pigs in Extremadura at 14; those journeys led to the family's own dehesas.
The house controls the whole cycle: selecting the pigs, raising them free-range on more than 30,000 hectares of dehesa in Andalucía, Extremadura and Salamanca, then cutting, salting and curing in its workshops in Guijuelo, the cradle of Iberico ham. Its products are served in more than 50 countries.
The premium « Admiración » line gathers its exceptional pieces, supervised one by one. Its motto: « Admiración, from the origin. »
