Ibericos Maldonado (Extremadura)

Their essence goes back to the mid-19th century and the town of Albuquerque in Extremadura where the Maldonado family owned a small herd of pure Iberian breed pigs from the variety; lapin. Maldonado uses only 100% genetically pure bred Iberico pigs that live their entire lives roaming the countryside of Spain. Other companies will cross breed Iberico pigs with other breeds to increase the litter size and raw meat production. Maldonado prefers to work with only 100% pure Iberico even though it's more expensive. There is no one in Spain that provides more Dehesa range to their animals like the Maldonado family, in some cases 10 hectares per head. Maldonado iberico ham is probably the most true ham to the ancient culture of iberico breeding from Dehesa de Extremadura, making it an elite brand of Iberico ham.
