Consumption and Pairing
Chorizo Cular Ibérico de Bellota is extremely versatile in the kitchen. It can be enjoyed raw, sliced thinly to fully appreciate its texture and flavor, or used in cooking to add depth to a wide variety of dishes. It pairs exceptionally well with robust red wines, which complement its richness and complexity of flavors.
Nutritional Benefits
Although it's rich in flavor and high in calories, Acorn-fed Iberian Cular Chorizo also provides benefits thanks to its monounsaturated fatty acid content, especially oleic acid, which contributes to a healthier lipid profile. It's also a source of high-quality protein and various essential micronutrients.
This cured meat is a testament to Spain's culinary heritage, combining traditional curing techniques with the exceptional quality of acorn-fed Iberian meat to create a product that is both a delight for the palate and an important part of the Mediterranean diet.
About EXTREM:
Part of DOP Dehesa de Extremadura, the most demanding designation of origin in Spain
They are committed to Animal Welfare. Their Iberian pigs roam freely on over 18,000 hectares of Dehesa, with each pig enjoying approximately 25,000 m² (2.5 hectares) of pristine land.
They produce only what is naturally reared on the farm and oversee every stage of the process, from selection and feeding to the montanera and drying process. A key differentiator is their own feed mill, where they produce high-quality natural grain-based feed to ensure strong, well-prepared animals before they transition to a diet exclusively of acorns and wild herbs in the Dehesa.
Extended Curing: more than 40 months of curing period. From breeding and feeding to the montanera (free-range acorn-feeding period) and curing, it takes six years before their product reaches the market. This makes it a true gastronomic gem.
