It is the flagship product of our online store for those seeking to incorporate the taste of artisanal salt-curing into their regular diet without breaking the bank.
Seafaring Tradition at the Barbate Factory
Despite being our most economical option, the process does not skimp on care. Each piece is cleaned, pressed in coarse sea salt, and meticulously washed at our facilities in Barbate.
Afterward, the loins move to optimal drying rooms, where the controlled action of the air patiently matures them over weeks. The result is a pure, clean, and 100% natural product, completely free of chemical preservatives, colorants, or artificial additives.
