Why we chose them
Monte Nevado is a family business with 125 years of history. In 1898, Juan Olmos returned from the Cuban War and used his savings to buy pigs.
Within a few years, he became an important producer of cured hams. Led by his son Vicente and then his grandson Miguel, the company grew to
become one of Spain's leading ham producers, specialising in Jamón Serrano, Ibérico and Mangalica. Monte Nevado is one of the few companies to
produce Jamón Serrano, awarded as the best of the year, without preservatives. The jewel in the crown of their production is the 100% Iberian Jamón
de Bellota, recently awarded the title of "Mejor Jamón 2025" by Alimentos de España. Monte Nevado closely monitors the entire production chain,
from breeding in the dehesas where during the Montanera each pig has two hectares of forest to feed on grass and acorns to curing, which lasts
at least 42 months. Monte Nevado is also deeply linked to Mangalica, a Hungarian breed of pigs with thick fur and fatty meat, which until a few years
ago was at risk of extinction but has been saved thanks to Juan Vicente Olmos, fourth generation, now at the helm of Monte Nevado.
