Information about Jamón de Teruel DOP Perfecto. Best Ham in Spain 2024 - Castelfrío
At Castelfrío, our passion for quality begins in the selection of exclusive pigs, raised under the Protected Designation of Origin Jamón de Teruel. These animals are fed with 100% natural cereals, ensuring a raw material of excellence.
The Perfect Ham is cured in the fresh and pure air of Cedrillas, Teruel, at an altitude of 1,364 meters.
The minimum curing is 30 months, much longer than usual for a white layer ham. To make a comparison, the ibérico rule requires a minimum of 24 months for a jamón ibérico.
The slow drying process together with the special selection of the raw material allows us to obtain the best ham in Spain that is characterized by its mild flavor, a fat that melts easily and an intense aroma.
In the production of the best Serrano Ham in Spain 2024 , the traditional pile-salting method is used, just as it was done in Cedrillas of a lifetime.

In 1988, Perfecto Gómez and Pilar Gómez began their business adventure in Cedrillas, Teruel, creating Jamones Castelfrío.
The climatic conditions of Cedrillas have always made the municipality a very special place for the curing of hams. Tradition was in the air. For this reason, from the beginning, their commitment to the artisanal methods of curing cured ham in Teruel has been present in every piece of ham they have made.
Currently, the second generation of the family formed by the three children of Perfecto and Pilar, have been able to combine the experience of their parents with their university education to create authentic products that reflect the soul of the land of Teruel.
