• Curing: at an altitude of over 1,000 metres with constant cold winds. This ham is exposed to drying for longer than other Denominación de Origen Protegida (DOP) hams. 
• Climate: long winters (cold and dry), combined with the mountain winds that allow the ham to require less salt for curing and to express its natural flavour better.
• Traceability: guarantees the Denominación de Origen Protegida (DOP) through specific conditions: visits to the animals in the field, collection of samples, control inspection at all stages of production and audits.
