Iberian Shoulder Protected Designation of Origin "Los Pedroches"
The 100% Iberico pata negra "Jamón Pasión" come from 100% Iberian pigs, raised in freedom and fed on acorns and natural pastures present in the Valle de los Pedroches dehesa, in Villanueva de Córdoba.
They belong to the PDO Los Pedroches, a label reserved for certain Iberian products that meet a series of requirements of the highest quality. All these characteristics confer and guarantee a Gourmet product that is expressed in the unctuousness of its meat, with an extraordinary marbling of infiltrated fat, typical of 100% Iberian pig breeds.
They are characterized by having a powerful flavor and aroma, more intense than hams.

Preservation of the Acorn-fed Shoulder "Jamón Pasión"
When you receive the Pata Negra 100% Iberico de bellota shoulder from the Spanish ham store, you should remove the protective wrapping and put it in a cool, dry place. Once started, you must protect the meat with a layer of the initial bacon that has been removed, to preserve its smoothness and that it does not dry out excessively. Always use suitable and well-sharpened utensils to obtain the best characteristics of the ham.
We recommend that if the consumption is going to be long, start the Iberian ham shoulder with the hoof down, by the stifle, the narrowest and driest area. If the consumption is going to be in a few days, you can start it with the juiciest area, the mace, with the hoof upwards.
