WHAT IS LOMITO IBÉRICO DE BELLOTA?

Arturo Sánchez’ Lomito Ibérico de Bellota is one of a kind. Made from acorn-fed 100% Iberian pigs and cured for a minimum of 6 months in a natural curing process in the fresh mountain air of Guijuelo. Savour thin slices of this tasty, cured sausage with a glass of fine wine.

Lomito Ibérico is cured whole presa, a cut from the Iberico pork attached to the shoulder, and located near the head of the loin. Presa Iberica is a very tender well marbled cut that can be prepared quickly over a hot pan. Due to its location, it possesses qualities of both the shoulder and loin. The nature of this piece ensures that there is a high fat infiltration giving it its particular and distinctive marbled appearance. Arturo Sanchez’s family has been perfecting the cured Lomito Ibérico preparation and dressing for generations with natural spices and an extraordinary De La Vera Spanish Paprika.

Only the best presa pieces are used in the process, as they must be impeccable pieces. After the preparation and dressing, the loins are stuffed into natural casing and smoked traditionally in a holm oak wood fire room. After the product spends a minimum of 6 months of natural drying process in our natural cellars. The result is an elegant product that has an intense delicate flavour with high permanence on the palate. 

This classic Spanish sausage comes in a whole piece, vacuum packed which makes it the ideal gift for any Spanish food aficionado. A superb sausage that is succulent, with incredibly soft texture thanks to the lean pork cuts used to make it.

Ibérico charcuterie can only come from black pigs of the Iberian breed. This legendary and select race has many qualities, including a great capacity to accumulate fat under its skin and between the muscular fibres. The fat is what produces the typical white streaks that make its hams so special and bring the legendary flavour. The presence of this fat, when used to create chorizo adds a special dimension to the flavour – something that must be tried! The acorn-fed richness runs through the sausage, creating that classic rich nutty flavour that you can only get from the Dehesas of Spain. The sausages are also hand filled to ensure that this wonderful tradition of producing Lomo Ibérico is kept alive.
