Those that spend the longest time in the dryer are the 50% Iberian bait. Anyway, it is the ham master who has the last word and who decides when he is mature. So that the sliced Iberico ham arrives at your home in perfect condition and ready to eat as you like. In addition to slicing, you can also buy it whole or boneless.

The Iberian pig is an exquisite meat because of how fat infiltrates its muscle tissue. Its gastronomic value is unquestionable and the space it occupies in the elite of gourmet products cannot be argued either. At Lola Gourmet we take care that customers are properly informed about the particularities of the product. So that they are clear that buying acorn-fed Iberian ham on our website is the best thing they can do. We provide all the necessary data on the quality and traceability of the Iberian hams that we offer.

Quality and the best price

Acorn-fed ham is the highest quality Iberian ham. It comes from pigs that have been raised in the pastures eating acorns and other natural resources. On the other hand, the field bait ham lives in two different points. During the montanera they are in the pasture eating cereal and legume feed, as well as field herbs. The bait ham is the one that would occupy the third place in the quality ladder. It therefore has a more affordable sale price. The animal lives on farms and only eats feed based on cereals and legumes.

To make sure of the origin of the iberico ham, we will look at the colored tape that must go on the stem of the ham and that refers to each Protected Designation of Origin (PDO). The black indicates that it is a piece of acorn-fed 100% Iberian ham. Red is placed on the pieces that come from crossed pigs. The green one is for the Iberian field bait ham. On the market there are 100% Iberian field bait hams, 75% or 50% Iberian. The white ribbon is reserved for Iberian bait ham. As in the previous case, they can be 100% Iberian bait hams, 75% Iberian or 50% Iberian.
