Monsalud,
founded in 1997, is the fruit of love of a group of businessmen for
their
native Extremadura,
who
got together in the mid-Nineties with the intent of making our region´s
products known on the marketplace.
|
At
Monsalud we inherit a hundred year old tradition of the artisanal
production
of Iberian pig products.
Our
expert craftsmen produce Iberian acorn-fed ham with an
individualized treatment.
Every
piece gets
a unique supervision, from the point of breeding the Iberian pig
until its curing process in the cellar.
|
The hams
of Monsalud are air-cured in the Sierra de Montánchez, the
capital of ham of Extremadura.
The
special climate and the unique surroundings create a
special curing process.
Extremadura
contains 32 % of the ranges of Spain, while Salamanca (Guijuelo) only
represents 12 % and Huelva (Jabugo) barely reaches 8 %.
