Arcano: The purest and most essential way of treating primitive Iberian ham.Maldonado has produced Arcano, a type of ham that preserves the original organoleptic characteristics of the purest acorn-fed Iberian ham treated in a primitive way. Arcano respects the natural properties of the Iberian ham, its skin and fat, without any kind of manipulation in its feeding, thus recovering a forgotten artisan tradition. In this way, Maldonado offers with Arcano a luxury sensory experience as purist as possible: the best texture, maximum intensity and extreme elegance.Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

Company founded in 1962 by Sabas Maldonado and his son Manuel Maldonado, where they sought only the best lineages of Acorn-Fed 100% Iberian pigs.  

In 1992, Manuel Maldonado took the helm and managed to create an exclusive product, mentioned in the most prestigious specialised publications in the world.

Maldonado creates a very careful product, with a diet based on acorns, with the selection of Acorn-fed 100% Iberian pigs with unique treatments that make them a high-end gourmet product.

Nowadays MALDONADO exports its products to more than 15 countries.
