Day 1
Tour of an Iberian Ham Drying Plant in Jabugo: Visit to Wineries and Tasting
3 stops
1
We will leave by private vehicle, heading to the town of Jabugo, nestled in the Huelva mountain range, among green landscapes and ancient forests of holm oaks and cork oaks. A small town that has achieved world fame thanks to its incomparable Iberian acorn-fed ham. Upon entering Jabugo, it is impossible not to feel enveloped by an intoxicating and unique aroma: the sweet and deep smell of curing Iberian ham. The streets emanate history and tradition, and this place has been, for centuries, the epicenter of the production of what many consider the best ham in the world.

Visiting the wineries is a true immersion in this universe. First of all, we will visit the pastures, to see where the Iberian pigs graze and raise. These animals, purebred and black-skinned, roam freely through the pastures, feeding on acorns during the montanera, in a ritual that has remained unchanged over time.

Later, we will visit the centuries-old cellars, where time seems to have stopped, the pieces of ham hang in perfect harmony, slowly curing under the expert supervision of the master ham makers. The walls, silent witnesses of years of tradition, protect the reddish gold of Jabugo. The tour ends with a tasting. And it is at that moment, when the first cut of ham touches the palate, that all the magic of Jabugo is understood. The explosion of flavors, rich and complex, speak of the land, the tradition and the care with which this delicacy has been created.
