Hind limb from BEHER’s own pigs selected from birth and raised in
freedom. These pigs at the final stage of the “montanera” have not reached
their optimum weight, for which the we feed them for 2 or 3 more months
with natural cereal, as well as grasses, tubers, roots and acorns in an
unbeatable ecosystem in our pastures. Once they reach the ideal weight,
they are outside the time limits required by the Iberian regulations for
slaughter, for this reason it does not have the corresponding seal.
These pieces, due to their racial characteristics, have an elongated and
stylized cane with a golden and fluid fat on the outside, while the inside
shows a pink and melting appearance that floods the mouth with intense
and prolonged nuances.
In our Authentic Black Label BEHER Ham we discover a bright cherry
red shade, delicately interspersed with a high percentage of oleic acid
that helps maintain an adequate level of cholesterol in the blood, as well
as being rich in proteins, vitamin B1, iron, zinc, magnesium, folic acid and
vitamin E (excellent antioxidant). In the nose we recognize intense and
pleasant aromas, comparable to the 100% acorn-fed Iberian ham, typical of
its character and personality. In the mouth we appreciate an unmistakable
enveloping and a sustained bouquet with a touch of sweetness
characteristic of Beher due to a reduction in the time of salting and long
maturation, achieving a healthier and tastier product.
