Pork and Jamón
Ibérico are one
of those
treasures that
the Earth
provides us with,
to enjoy at the
table.
At Gaia, in our search for the best product, we found pork and Jamón Ibérico to be the perfect expression of what we have come to know as a “gastronomy luxury”.
Iberian pigs are species with (DOP) Protected Denomination of Origin” from Extremadura - Spain, that have unique and special qualities which, in addition to the environment where they graze and grow, make them a delicacy with unique properties and an exquisite taste.
For both cured and fresh pork, Iberian pigs
are bred free and graze free, and become a
true treasure of flavor.
For this breed, factors such as food, freedom
wander and be exposed to nature. Lighting
conditions, produce a unique flavor, where
the marbling and consistency of the meat
makes the flavor of Montaraz Iberian pork
unique and original
The magic of
the bellota
Within the selection of iberian free-grazing,
there is one Jamón that outshines all others,
and it comes from the pigs that eat bellota
acorns, fruit of the holm and the cork oaks,
Mediterranean trees that grow in pastures,
the quintessential environment where Iberian
pigs are bred.
This diet is what results in the meat’s
characteristic marbling of the healthy fat
(oleic acid) of the bellota acorn, which is the
essence of its flavor and its texture, and
which make it an exquisite product.
130 years of tradition, passion, and love
for the Spanish countryside mark, the
history of the Montaraz family.
For five generations they have
transmitted the knowledge behind the
breeding of Ibérico pigs and their Jamón
traditional curing process, using only salt
from the Mediterranean.
Pigs roam freely along their pastures,
feeding as nature intended, and
slaughter remains artisanal. This
heritage, and the care they exert within
each stage of its process, make this
brand a true icon of Iberian pork and
Jamón Ibérico.
Each of their products is a
guarantee of nature, of
technique, of knowledge,
free of additives,
preservatives, and
nitrates.
The Spanish countryside...
just light and salt.
Years of tradition, time, and exquisite flavor,
now within reach in USA.
