This weekend we were at Selfridges, London, to give a taste of our products, essence of Iberian Ham.

The tasting was very animated as there were enough people present, tasting and learning more about the properties of Iberian Ham.

At Juan Pedro Domecq we are delighted to announce that the restaurant: Jockey has recently included our Juan Pedro Domecq Iberian Hams at its menu.

This restaurant with over 60 years of history has become one of the most popular restaurants of haute cuisine. Among the most popular events organized by the Madrid restaurant, was the marriage between Felipe De Borbón and Letizia Ortiz, Prince and Princess of Asturias.

We all already know that the ham sector is in a deep sales downturn, being highly affected in Christmas, when it is the high season of this product, so that's why a lot of stockbreeders are being victims of the surplus of production since their sales previsions were incorrect.

In the Spanish high-speed and long-distance train network some films, documentaries and the Paisajes magazine are offered for free for the entertainment of the passengers.

What does the Spanish expression "Pata Negra" mean?

Pata Negra is a commonly used term to refer to the highest quality products that come from the Iberian Pork. Literally, it means "Black Hoof" in reference to the colour of most of these pigs' skin and hoofs, however black is not always their colour...

We are pleased to be one of the gourmet products which is present in the finn website of the online shop: Alambique.

Championship of "Cortadores de jamón"

Everybody is aware of the skills of these professionals, we see them in events and fairs and we are always surprised by the speed they strip the ham and begin to slice it.

The  magazine "Mercado Iberico" is a publication in Spain and Portugal, conceived as a luxury and business guide.  For a lot of people, it is a referent. It shows us the reality of these two countries and the trends of the global market.

In its edition in November 2011, the magazine Mercado Iberico mentions Juan Pedro Domecq in an article about export to the Asian Giant: China. And hereby we confirm that our products are being sold in the Asian market!

On 24th January the 10th edition of Madrid Fusion began and as usual Juan Pedro Domecq was present. It is an international fair with a deep professional nature, which makes it the perfect place to create new job relations.  The exhibitions of top-class chefs and presentations of important figures turn this event into an exceptional fair.
