Arturo Sánchez Jamón Ibérico Wholesale | Official Guijuelo Distributor
Arturo Sánchez and FISAN are century-old heritage houses specializing in long-cured, high-altitude hams from Guijuelo. We provide wholesale access to exclusive Double Montanera and Gran Reserva selections for the USA, UK, and EU markets.
The Heritage: Arturo Sánchez and the Double Montanera
A fourth-generation family house rooted in Guijuelo, Arturo Sánchez has redefined Iberian excellence through nearly a century of tradition. Our legacy is built upon the unique microclimate of the region and the revolutionary Double Montanera innovation—a commitment to two full acorn-feeding seasons that allows our purebred pigs to reach unparalleled physiological maturity. This patient approach, combined with the natural drying winds of Guijuelo, creates the distinctive aromatic complexity and silky texture that defines the Arturo Sánchez heritage.
The Technical Specs: Double Montanera Iberico Ham
Dual Seasons
The Double Montanera protocol requires pigs to feed on acorns across two full seasons (Montaneras). While industry standards settle for one, Arturo Sánchez doubles this investment to ensure a deeper infiltration of oleic acid and an unparalleled development of the animal's physical frame and fat quality.
Artisan Curing
A legacy 48–60 month curing period in natural high-altitude cellars in Guijuelo. This slow maturation relies on the specific cold, dry winds of the region, allowing the ham to sweat naturally and develop the complex, umami-rich flavors that are the hallmark of the House of Arturo Sánchez.
Fat Complexity
The resulting complex fat structure is rich in oleic acid, melting at room temperature to release a spectrum of aromatic notes. This genetic and nutritional superiority creates the distinctive marbling that defines Arturo Sánchez Wholesale quality for elite culinary establishments globally.
