The paleta of 100% sweet bellota ibérico PDO Jabugo SUMUM 17 Aldeas is truly exceptional. It comes from pure Iberian pigs that are raised in the family pasture of La Lima, where they are fed on sweet acorns.
The bellota like all fruits, has sugars in its composition. The average is usually 3.5% and the hundred-year-old holm oaks of our Dehesa have 9%, almost triple the usual. This doesn't mean that the ham is going to be sweet, no!! But the pig ibérico as a monogastric animal, synthesizes in its meat the food it takes. In this way, a bellota with more sugar will give the ham a unique and special flavor.
Our Dehesa, located in the Sierra de Aracena Picos de Aroche Natural Park, has a very high density of holm oaks that allow a higher consumption of bellota per animal that translates into a higher % of oleic acid, reaching up to 60% well above the usual.
But that's not all. At 17 Villages, we take Animal Welfare very seriously and are one of the few ibérico producers to hold the prestigious Welfair Quality No. 2022010001 certificate and PEFC License No. PEFC/14-22-00004.
By adding up all these special circumstances, we obtain a truly unique paleta ibérica: the paleta 17 PDO Jabugo Villages. It is, without a doubt, arguably the best paleta ibérica in the world.
The paleta 17 Aldeas PDO Jabugo is unique thanks to the pigs raised with sweet acorns in a Dehesa with high sugar content in the holm oaks, which brings a distinctive flavor to the jamón ibérico. In addition, the high density of holm oaks allows a greater consumption of acorns, and Animal Welfare is emphasized with the Welfair Quality seal, making this paleta one of the best in the world.
17 Aldeas, Pata Negra de Bellota Dulce, is much more than a brand of ham. It is a philosophy, a way of raising Iberian pigs with absolute respect for animal welfare (Welfair Quality Certificate) and biodiversity (PEFC Certificate); It is one of the most exclusive hams in the world. A luxury of Iberian ham.
Why buy 100% Iberian acorn-fed ham 17 Aldeas?
All our hams come from the family Dehesa La Lima, surrounded by 17 villages and in a unique environment: the Natural Park of the Sierra de Aracena and Picos de Aroche, declared a Dehesas de Sierra Morena Biosphere Reserve by Unesco in 2002.
The Dehesa de la Lima is special because the acorn of its oaks are significantly sweeter and because it has water springs of unusual purity. These two characteristics give the ham a unique and easily recognizable flavor that captivates the palate of the most demanding consumers. The extraordinary abundance of sweet acorns of our Dehesa also allows the percentage of Oleic Acid of the 17 Aldeas hams to be higher than the average with levels above 60%.
To add a plus of guarantee and quality, all Iberian ham 17 Aldeas is covered by the PDO Jamón de Jabugo with summum category.
Therefore, when you buy an Iberian ham 17 Aldeas Pata Negra de Bellota Dulce you will be acquiring what is probably the best ham in the world, only available in annual limited editions.

In its firm commitment to hams of exquisite quality and sustainable, 17 Aldeas products have the Welfair Quality certifications for Animal Welfare and PEFC for Sustainable Forest Management.
