Discover how authentic ham from Huelva is made from free-range pigs. We'll visit a ham curer and take part in a delicious tasting of Iberian tastings.

Description

We'll meet at the indicated time, next to the Descansadero de Marimateos Park, on the outskirts of the town, and proceed to the source of the Odiel River. A trail through the Sierra de Arecena pastures offers insights into the local flora and fauna with the help of our local guide.

Next, we'll arrive at the estate where the Iberian pigs are raised in the wild. We'll learn about their upbringing and the life cycle of this unique peninsular species, leading to the production of high-quality products. This will be followed by a visit to the ham and cold meats factory, where we will explore the rooms used in the production process, including the natural drying and curing room to observe the traditional preparation of the ham.

The tour concludes with an authentic tasting of cured products, featuring Jamón Iberico de la Bellota (Iberian Acorn-Fed Ham) and Marqués de Aracena white and red wine. An on-site shop will be open for those wishing to purchase additional delicacies at the end of the visit.
