Fisan 50% Iberian Acorn-fed Ham

Fisan Ham

The FISAN 50% Ibérico Acorn-Fed Ham is a whole leg crafted in Guijuelo (Salamanca), where the unique microclimate allows for a natural and slow curing process of more than 36 months. It comes from 50% Ibérico breed pigs raised in freedom in the dehesa and fed on acorns during the montanera, resulting in meat marbled with fat rich in oleic acid, with a juicy texture and an intense, balanced flavour. Each ham reflects the tradition and excellence that have characterised FISAN for over a century.

History and tradition of Fisan

Founded in 1920 in Campillo de Salvatierra (Salamanca), FISAN is a family business that has passed down the art of Ibérico ham from generation to generation.

Now in the hands of the third generation, FISAN continues to balance innovation with respect for tradition, standing as one of the great benchmarks of Ibérico ham from Guijuelo worldwide.
