During the Montanera phase, the Joselito pigs consume up to 10 kg of acorns and 3 kg of grass - daily! This gives the ham its incomparably nutty taste.
The pigs live for over 2 years in absolute freedom in their natural environment between pastures and oak forests, each pig has around 3 hectares at their disposal.
After removal, the shoulder ham is rubbed with salt and then left to mature for 30 months.
You will experience optimal enjoyment if you eat the ham at a temperature of 24 - 25 °C. Therefore, take it out of the refrigerator about an hour before eating and let the ham reach room temperature.
