Ibéricos Sánchez López: Excellence in Every Bite

In the world of Iberian products, Ibéricos Sánchez López is synonymous with perfection, thanks to the dedication of two internationally renowned Master Carvers: José María Sánchez and Alfredo López. The passion of these experts for achieving excellence is reflected in every product they bring to market.

The Essence of Ibéricos Sánchez López

The brand name says it all: Ibéricos Sánchez López specializes in offering only the most select Iberian pork products, crafted with an artisanal approach.

This commitment to quality ensures that every customer finds a unique and delicious experience in their products.

Every piece from Ibéricos Sánchez López comes from Iberian pigs, a breed distinguished by their slender legs and black hooves. The skin of these animals, along with the unmistakable flavor of their products, are characteristics that make the difference and guarantee an unparalleled gastronomic experience.

Free-Range Farming and Natural Feeding

Their pigs, unique in their kind, are raised freely in the dehesas of the southwestern peninsula, where they feed on acorns and native herbs.

This natural diet, rich in proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, contributes to the optimal muscle development of the animals and results in a perfect balance between meat and marbled fat, a hallmark of the quality of Iberian products.

Commitment to Excellence

At Ibéricos Sánchez López, the highest standard is demanded in all products that bear their seal. The designation "Iberian" is synonymous with Premium category in each of the products presented on this website.

How to Recognize an Ibérico Sánchez López?

Every product is a masterpiece of superior quality, whether it is a ham, a shoulder, a caña de lomo, or a lomo embuchado. A selection of fresh products is also offered, coming from the butchering of the carcass, distinguished by their sublime category and the exceptional level of the animals from which they come.

Varieties of Ibéricos Sánchez López

The differences between the products, although all of supreme level, lie mainly in the feeding and handling of the pig. Their Iberian products can be:

• De Bellota: If the pig has been fed exclusively on acorns, grass, and other natural resources of the dehesa during its fattening phase.

• De Cebo de Campo: If the pig has been fed with feed and natural resources in outdoor farms that may also have covered areas.

• De Cebo: If the pigs have been fed only with feed in intensive farming.

Labels that Guarantee Quality

The labels of their products comply with current regulations, reflecting the racial origin of each animal. The black label, the most exclusive, identifies the 100% Iberian products, coming from animals with complete genetic purity. This information is crucial and clearly indicated on the label.

The red, green, or white labels indicate the genetic percentage of the Iberian breed, whether it is 50% or 75%, and are placed near the sales denomination, using a prominent font size to ensure that this information is easily visible.

Quality Certification by Independent Entities

Ibéricos Sánchez López relies on independent certifying entities to guarantee the quality of their products. These companies carry out rigorous monitoring from the pig's birth to final sale, ensuring that every piece meets the highest quality standards.

What is the value proposition of IBÉRICOS SÁNCHEZ LÓPEZ?

The Dehesa: The Heart of Iberian Excellence

In the vast and majestic landscape of the dehesa, where holm oaks, cork oaks, and other native species intertwine, lies the secret behind the exceptional quality of Iberian products. This natural ecosystem, with its layer of grasslands and shrubs, forms the true workshop where the unmistakable flavor of Iberian products is born.

The Dehesa: An Ecosystem in Perfect Balance

The dehesa is not just a habitat but a carefully managed environment that combines the beauty of nature with sustainable practices. Human intervention in these forests is key to their conservation and responsible exploitation. Livestock management, hunting activities, and the harvesting of forest resources such as firewood, cork, and mushrooms are carried out in a way that respects and preserves the natural richness of the landscape.

An Environment that Enhances the Quality of Iberian Products

The dehesa provides an ideal environment for Iberian pigs, allowing them to feed on acorns and native herbs. This natural diet is essential for developing the distinctive texture and flavor of Iberian products. Thanks to the sustainable management of the dehesa, a perfect balance is ensured between human activity and the preservation of the ecosystem, resulting in a superior quality of the products derived from this unique environment.
