Spain is the only country where this type of pig can be
found. The Iberico is lean animal, which however has the
ability to accumulate fat in its muscles. It is the only
breed capable of doing this to such an extent...
It is a pig that genetically loves to forage to feed and
therefore is not as sedentary as other breeds of pigs. Most
importantly the extra fat is an attribute for the Iberico
since it is the cause for the unique marbling found in its
meat and musculature structure that makes its taste and
texture so wonderful and special.

olives and wine or beer. Its flavor is at once
sharp, buttery and slightly salty.
Mahón is a traditional semi-hard cheese, produced
from cow's milk on Menorca, the outermost of the

CHORIZOS LA ESPANOLA
Chorizo cantimpalo is famous across
Spain for its meaty, smoky flavor. This dry-cured
sausage is best sliced thinly and enjoyed wrapped around
aged cheese or paired with crusty bread and good Spanish
olives.
The original recipe hails from the village of
Cantimpalos in the region of Segovia. Over centuries the
people of Cantimpalos refined and perfected the recipe,
blending fresh rosemary, garlic, smoked pimentón paprika
and other spices until they created a masterpiece.
It is one of our favorite foods to bring to parties and
get-togethers since it is ready to slice in moments and
is a great way to introduce one of Spain's best foods to
your friends and family.
