  • A Land That Cures Well

In the Basque Country, where the Pyrenees roll down to meet the Atlantic, charcuterie isn't a starter, it's a way of life. And guanciale made here carries that same unhurried spirit.
These pigs are Ibaïama, a protected label reserved for animals born, raised, and fed exclusively in the Basque Country. They roam its oak and chestnut forests, foraging on acorns and roots, and the land shows in the meat: deeper colour, firmer bite, a flavour that lingers.
The cheek is cured slowly, letting the fat marble through in the way only this breed allows. The result is a guanciale of rare character; rich, yielding, and deeply savoury.

This is Basque guanciale at its proudest. And rightly so.

A true star of the show!

A perfect Carbonara only needs 5 ingredients but by far the most important is a great Guanciale and this really delivers! The succulent fat from the pigs cheek adds a glossy finish whilst at the same time delivers a rich salty depth of flavour that lives long in the memory.

Thank you, David, for the wonderful review! We are so happy to hear you enjoyed our guanciale. We have it crafted especially for us in the South West of France, and we agree, the result is truly unique.
