WHAT IS CHORIZO IBÉRICO?
Discover the amazing flavour of Spain’s finest cured sausage – Chorizo Ibérico by Arturo Sánchez.
Made from acorn-fed, free-range pork blended with smoked paprika and garlic, this chorizo is aged for a minimum of 4 months in the mountain air of Guijuelo in Salamanca. Enjoy thin slices of this delectable sausage with a glass of fine Spanish wine. The rich and flavourful chorizo will literally melt in your mouth!
Chorizo Ibérico comes from black Ibérico pigs that can only be found in Spain. We only use noble cuts such as Pluma, Secreto and Presa when making our artisan chorizo ibérico.
Ibérico charcuterie can only come from black pigs of the Iberian breed. This legendary and select race has many qualities, including a great capacity to accumulate fat under its skin and between the muscular fibres. The fat is what produces the typical white streaks that make its hams so special and bring the legendary flavour. The presence of this fat, when used to create chorizo adds a special dimension to the flavour – something that must be tried! The acorn-fed richness runs through the sausage, creating that classic rich nutty flavour that you can only get from the Dehesas of Spain. The sausages are also hand filled to ensure that this wonderful tradition of producing Chorizo is kept alive.
Our Arturo Sanchez Chorizo Ibérico is soft, sweet, smooth with well-balanced flavours, making it perfect for tapas.
HOW TO SERVE CHORIZO IBÉRICO?
Slice your Chorizo Ibérico as thinly as possible and serve with excellent bread and wine. You can add slices to salads or sandwiches, or dice and add to stews or pasta.
We prefer to eat slices of this superb chorizo by themselves, better to enjoy the layers of flavour.
For maximum taste, serve at room temperature with a glass of Marques de Murrieta Reserva from Rioja.
