PAIRING AND RECIPES
Lomo is an Iberian cured delicacy extracted from the back of the pig. This cylindrical piece is free from external fat, and is considered one fo the most valuable and appreciated cuts from the animal. Fino or Manzanilla sherries are a good companion for this rich cured delicacy due to their capacity of balancing flavors and cleansing the palate between mouthfuls.
We recommend the luxury of loin during the appetizer course, always carving in translucent, paper-thin slices to fully appreciate its unique qualities. Exclusive slices elegantly displayed will be the hightlight of any meal.
