This is how an exclusive and homogeneous quality is achieved in all the products that share the same Designation of Origin. When it comes to Iberian shoulders and hams, which come from animals that comply with the regulations regarding Iberian pigs, there are only 4 in all the world.

OP Guijuelo: located in Salamanca.
OP Los Pedroches: of the province of Córdoba.

More information about García Mimbrero

Many things have changed since Rafael García Mimbrero founded, in Fuente de Cantos (Extremadura), what he called “La Casa” in 1956. But there is something that remains intact over the decades: his work and dedication in caring for of our pigs.

Always aimed at offering its customers Iberian products of the highest quality

A great product available to everyone

When García Mimbrero began the production of his products, Iberian pork was not available to everyone.

For this reason, and following the example of Henry Ford, who made cars that his employees could buy, They like to offer high quality Iberian products at an affordable price.

Natural care and feeding of your animals

Not everyone knows that the Iberian pig needs something more than the grasses, roots, flowers and mushrooms that it finds in the pasture. These are insufficient for their development, and the acorns only occur at a very specific time of year.

For this reason, at García Mimbrero, during an early period of time, they feed their pigs with self-made feed. As it was done before.

Following the entire production chain of their feed, from formulation to manufacturing, they guarantee the most appropriate diet for their pigs.

And this impacts in two ways:

They always ensure the highest quality of the food they provide to their animals.
By following a homogeneous diet for your pigs, you also get a unique flavor that never changes and is easy to recognize and remember.

They adapt artisanal and traditional methods

To complete the entire process, they make their sausages in a traditional way; and they leave the correct profiling, salting and drying of their hams and shoulders in the hands of their master ham makers.

At García Mimbrero they always have in mind the 3 main ingredients that they apply in the production of their products, and in the care of their pigs:

The best tradition
Love
Dedication

This is what really allows them to offer their customers healthy and best quality products.

Pigs raised free in communion with nature

A unique animal, such as the Iberian pig, needs a unique place in which to grow, such as the pasture.

A space that is only found in the east and southwest of the peninsula, and that is an ecological paradise for this noble animal.
In the Extremadura pasture the Iberian pig enjoys freedom, shelter and food. Roaming freely through these pastures, they find wild shoots, mushrooms and also, during the months of October to March, their greatest treasure. The acorn

We are therefore talking about a ham that will not leave indifferent lovers of Iberian pork and its high-end products, in what represents the best of Spanish gastronomy. As usual Made in Spain Gourmet, offers Only the Best.
