ANTONIO ÁLVAREZ JAMONES
Founded in 1980 by Antonio Álvarez, father of the current managers, this company has since then endeavoured to maintain the same artisanal processes that lead to the creation of a Trévelez Ham. A production that benefits from a PGI, a protected indication of origin, guaranteeing compliance with the various stages: rigorous selection of the white hams from which they start and natural ageing of the hams, from 17 to 30 months, at a temperature naturally maintained at 15°C. In the shop you can buy the precious hams, but also the cheeses and wines of the Alpujarra. The house also organizes guided tours in a drying room to understand the different stages of processing: curing, adding butter to protect the ham, sweating... etc., followed by a tasting of hams from Trévelez, Iberian bellota, accompanied by wines from the region.
