100% Iberico Acorn Shoulder Sanchez Romero Carvajal

What is 100% Iberian Acorn-Fed Shoulder?

100% Iberian acorn-fed shoulder is a cut taken from the front legs of a purebred Iberian pig, renowned for its high quality and intense flavor. It is produced using a traditional process of salting and slow curing, which enhances its aromatic nuances and juicy texture. Unlike ham, the shoulder offers a deeper and slightly more intense taste. It is a highly valued gourmet product in Spanish gastronomy.

What does “acorn-fed” and “100% Iberian” mean?

“100% Iberian” means that the pig is of pure Iberian breed, ensuring a unique fat marbling that provides juiciness and flavor. The term “acorn-fed” indicates that the animal was raised free-range and fed primarily on acorns during the montanera season. This natural diet directly influences the aroma, texture, and nutritional profile of the product. The result is a superior-quality shoulder with an authentic and well-balanced taste.

Why is shoulder cheaper than Iberian ham?

Iberian shoulder is more affordable than Iberian ham mainly because it comes from the front legs of the pig, which are smaller. This results in less meat yield and a shorter curing time compared to ham. Additionally, its size reduces production costs and processing time. Even so, it maintains exceptional quality and an intense flavor, making it an excellent gourmet option at a better price.
