The Extremadura city of Jerez de los Caballeros hosts this ham fair amongst Templar ruins.
Jerez de los Caballeros becomes a true paradise for ham-lovers every spring. The Iberian Ham Lounge brings together the best producers and distributors of this delicacy, which comes from the best pigs bred in Extremadura. And, little by little, it has become an inevitable meeting place for promoting what is considered to be our country's star product.
So, if you're interested in the culture of ham, make sure to go to this event where — besides really getting to know this incomparable product — you will be able to enjoy endless activities, workshops, tastings, gastronomic events, traditional foods and technical sessions...
An event where important business is also conducted, both at national and international level.
