A gastronomic experience centered around Iberian ham, in the heart of Salamanca

At Torreón Ibérico Experience, we open the doors of our cellar so that any visitor can discover, firsthand, the craft of making acorn-fed Iberian ham. For three generations, we have been caring for each piece from the Salamanca pasture to the table, and we want to share with you what makes Salamanca's Iberian ham unique.

Our experiences are much more than a guided tour. They are an Iberian ham tasting in its context: where the pig is raised, how the piece is cured, what differentiates a 100% acorn-fed ham from other categories, how to slice it, and how to pair it. All led by our team and, in the Gourmet version, with Chef Javier Fuentes at the helm of the Omakase menu.

Three ways to discover Salamanca's Iberian ham

We offer three formats designed for different profiles. The Esencia Ibérica (€29/person, 1h 15min) is the ideal introduction: masterclass, cellar visit, and tasting. The Origen Ibérico (€59/person, 3h 30min) adds a visit to the pasture to see the Iberian pig in its natural habitat. And the Gourmet Ibérica (€78/person) culminates with an exclusive Omakase menu.

Salamanca, capital of Iberian ham

Salamanca and its province are one of the main production areas for acorn-fed Iberian ham in Spain. The Salamanca dehesa (pastureland), with its ancient holm oaks, offers the perfect ecosystem for the "montanera," the period when Iberian pigs feed exclusively on acorns and fresh grass. If you are visiting the city, having an Iberian experience with us is the best way to understand why this product has a Designation of Origin and why it has become one of the gastronomic benchmarks of Castilla y León.

We are just 10 minutes from the center of Salamanca, in Villares de la Reina. If you want to see more about our acorn-fed Iberian ham or learn about Torreón's family history, we invite you to explore the rest of the website.
