100% acorn-fed cured white chorizo, Majada Pedroche
Chorizo is Spain’s most popular and most internationally renowned cured sausage. It is made from pork, pork fat, and spices—in this case pepper and wine.
Chorizo is the most versatile cured sausage. Its quality and price are determined by the raw material used. The ones selected by Made in Spain Gourmet are those made with the highest proportion of Iberian pork and the least bacon fat.
We consider Iberian chorizo to include all chorizos made from Iberian-breed pigs with at least 50% Iberian genetics. They are considered the finest Spanish chorizos, among which acorn-fed Iberian chorizo and 100% Iberian chorizo are the very best. Their flavor comes from the pig breed itself and from the natural foods they have eaten, such as acorns and natural pasture. These pigs live free-range in Spain’s dehesa woodlands.

A 100% Iberian-breed chorizo usually has a minimum curing time of 4–6 months.
