Caña de Lomo Ibérico de Bellota – Agroibérica de Pozo Blanco
Caña de Lomo Ibérico de Bellota – Agroibérica de Pozoblanco is a jewel of Spanish charcuterie. It is made with the finest cut of the Iberian pig: the loin. These pigs are raised free-range in the pastures of Los Pedroches and feed exclusively on acorns, which gives the meat superior quality and an exceptional flavor.
To prepare the caña de lomo, the entire pork loin is selected and seasoned with natural spices, such as paprika, garlic, and salt. This subtle marinade enhances the meat’s flavor without masking it, allowing the authentic taste of acorn-fed Iberian ham to shine through.
The loin then undergoes a slow and natural curing process in the drying sheds and cellars of Pozoblanco. The local climate and the curing time, which typically lasts several months, are essential for the piece to acquire its firm and juicy texture, its reddish color, and its unmistakable aroma.
The result is a gourmet product with marbling of infiltrated fat that melts in the mouth, a deep flavor, and a delicate aroma. It is ideal to enjoy in thin slices, as an appetizer, or on a charcuterie board, representing the excellence of the Iberian tradition.
