The origin;
the pasture.

The pasture determines the quality, flavor and nuances of César Nieto's Iberian products.

A unique environment that allows the breeding of exceptional animals

Our pigs are raised in the foothills of the Sierra de Gredos, surrounded by Mediterranean forests, holm oaks, cork oaks and groans. They feed on wild grasses in spring and summer and on acorns during the fattening season in autumn and winter.

An animal without comparison, an exclusive, autochthonous and unrepeatable species.

The pig
Iberian

All our Iberian pigs are directly controlled by us.

Thanks to this, year after year, we are carrying out genetic control work to enhance the natural properties of this wonderful species. In our farms we raise different breeds of Iberian pigs, guaranteeing the perpetuity of all breeds and their settlement in the Salamanca pasture.

Food and beverages

The basis of
our livestock

Our acorn-fed pigs are fed exclusively on natural resources, grasses and of course acorns on our farms. While our fattening pigs are fed with first quality cereals such as wheat, soybean, corn or barley.

The standard
of the Iberian

Iberian products in Spain are governed by the Iberian standard, which determines the basic characteristics in terms of the percentage of Iberian breed of pigs and their feed. In all our products you will find the following official standard seals that guarantee the origin and feeding of our pigs.

D.O. Guijuelo

At César Nieto we can proudly say that we are the original Iberian of Guijuelo.

Our obsession to remain faithful to tradition and to have been able to combine the advances that the present offers us, while maintaining the essence of artisan work, is what makes us stand out in the world of Iberian ham.
