    It was fascinating to learn about the iberian pig and processes. The tasting was good to experience the flavours of the various cuts and qualities of meat. Despite the tour operator booking me alone when the minimum is two people I was acomafated by the company which is a credit to the company and excellent customer service...

    The Ham (Jamon) Factory was a terrific experience for our group of about 20. The factory was remarkable in its care for quality and cleanliness. Migel was our tour guide and he did an excellent tour, presentation, and handling Q&A. We all loved the tour and learned a lot from it.

    The review begins with a brief introduction to Jamon iberico production, proceeds to a fairly extensive factory tour and ends with a tasting. The staff was kind enough to take me on thr tour e even though, in reality the minimum group size is 2. Given the length of the tour and the Jamon you get at the end, this is an excellent value. Thanks for answering all my questions Kevin

    We were reluctant to do this tour and we ended up being really happy we did it! Our guide Miguel was informative, enthusiastic, and patient with all our questions. All the employees we met were welcoming and friendly. We learnt about the very long process of curing ham, the different grades, and what to look for when buying in stores or ordering in restaurants. The end of the tour was a wonderful tasting of different ham products. It was all a pleasant surprise.

    This was a wonderful experience. The whole process of creation of jamon iberico from acorn to plate was covered. Excellent guide, very informative. The tasting at the end of Torreon products was great. Would recommend this experience very much. 1o minutes out of Salamanca centre so easy to access, much easier than travelling to Guijelo.
