Company Profile
The Joselito company was founded in 1868—over 150 years ago—in the small town of Guijuelo (Salamanca, Spain). Six generations of the same family have managed the business, adapting it to the needs of the times while always maintaining the utmost respect for the values that propelled it to the pinnacle of gastronomy: the 100% natural production of the world's finest ham.
This goal is achieved through three fundamental values.
Control over the entire production cycle, from the genetics of the pig herd to their rearing, diet, and distribution.
Care for the animal and its habitat: Joselito’s "Happy Pigs" live in their natural environment, enjoying approximately 3 hectares of forest per animal and a 100% natural diet.
And the curing process—lasting over 48 months in 100% natural cellars—which defines the ham's quality.
Nothing but ham and sea salt.
A 100% natural *Jamón*, free from additives and preservatives.
Thanks to this dedication to quality, Joselito is now present in over 56 countries across every continent. Its products can be enjoyed in the world's finest restaurants and most prestigious gourmet shops.
*Jamón Ibérico de Bellota* is characterized by a vast array of nuances and distinctive qualities; at Joselito, every vintage differs based on rainfall, sunshine, acorn quality, and field conditions. As a completely natural product, every ham is unique and unparalleled. While its uniqueness can be explored and discovered through various beverage pairings, the combination of Joselito *Jamón* and Champagne is a world waiting to be discovered—an experience not to be missed. Many expert sommeliers consider this pairing a match made in heaven—a destined union of two elements meant to come together; the spectacular interplay of effervescence and the rich, fatty texture of the ham.
The acidity and bubbles of Champagne contrast perfectly with the flavors of Jamón Joselito, leaving the palate ready for another slice. These are flavors and aromas that respect and complement one another.
It is an extraordinary experience that brings together two seemingly distant worlds, united to perfection through two products of supreme excellence.
