A Trusted Tradition from Castilla y León

The story of our Lomo Embuchado Extra begins in the heart of Castilla y León, where tradition and quality converge. We start with carefully raised pigs, ensuring only the finest pork loin cuts are selected by expert butchers. Less noble parts are discarded, guaranteeing a product of exceptional quality. The loin is then seasoned with a masterful blend of premium ingredients:

• Sweet and Smoky Paprika from La Vera: Sourced from the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) La Vera, this paprika adds a rich, smoky-sweet depth to the lomo.
• Garlic from Las Pedroñeras: Hailing from the Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) region, this garlic infuses the lomo with a subtle, aromatic complexity.
• Salt: Carefully measured to enhance the natural flavors of the pork without overwhelming them.

Following artisanal methods, the seasoned loin is stuffed into natural casings and undergoes a traditional curing process, including smoking over oak wood. This meticulous approach results in a lomo with a tender, juicy texture and a bold, authentic flavor that reflects the culinary traditions of Spain.
