What does the White Label mean on Iberian Ham?

The white seal is the visual guarantee of the Iberian Quality Standard. It certifies that you are buying authentic Cebo Ham, from an animal that is at least 50% Iberian breed, raised intensively (on a farm) and fed exclusively on feed. It is the most economical option within the Iberian range without compromising on quality.

What is the difference between Cebo Ham and Acorn-Fed Iberian Ham?

The key difference is the diet and curing process. A cebo ham comes from pigs fed on feed, while an acorn-fed ham comes from animals raised in the wild and fed mainly on acorns. The higher the quality of the feed, the greater the complexity of flavor and the higher the value of the ham. The length of time the ham is cured is essential. Longer curing periods allow the ham to develop deeper aromas, a creamier texture, and a more intense flavor, which directly influences its final price.
