Jamón Tours

The mighty Iberian pig is somewhat of an icon in Spain, with Jamón being the kingpin of the tapas scene across the nation and beyond. This one-day tour explores the Jamón Ibérico journey from farm to table, giving you a fascinating insight and appreciation.

This day trip from Seville journeys out into the rolling dehesas to the heart of Jamón Ibérico land.

You will first pay a visit to a ‘secadero de jamón’ (jamón drying kiln) where an expert will walk you through the maturing and drying process, following which, you will enjoy a tasting of jamón with your first Sherry of the day.

You’ll then be driven to a stunning private estate where the gentleman-farmer owner will introduce his pigs and give an exclusive tour of his farm to explain how these noble animals are reared.

Afterwards you’ll move up to the main house for a light lunch of traditional Andalucian food and Sherry, to relax and take in the beautiful views before finally heading back to Seville.

Your host on this tour is my good friend Gerry who has lived in Andalucia for over 15 years, working in the luxury travel industry. Gerry is a horsewoman with a deep passion for her adoptive land.

We really enjoyed our cooking class last October and have tried several of your recipes. The chocolate cake with sherry is unbelievable!!!

It is a very warm and pleasant memory and you have a special place in our Spanish adventure. We hope to visit you more in the future.

We spent a fabulous week with Anne exploring the food and drink of Andalusian Spain. We based ourselves in the beautiful hilltop town of Vejer de la Frontera, Anne's home. Cooking classes at her hilltop home, degustaciones of fresh tuna on the coast, Sherry tastings at bodegas, Arabic food luncheons, Tapa's tours and fabulous meals and entertainment all along the way. We mixed sightseeing and food in Jerez, Cadiz, Gibraltar, Barbate, Malaga and Morroco. Anne arranged it all. First class service in accommodations, instruction, transport, and guides. Most of all the great food and drink that only Spain can provide was the highlight that Anne served up for us with an ever present smile. Can't wait to visit again…

Just one day at Annie B’s Spanish Kitchen makes you feel like you’re at a good friend’s kitchen.

Your passion and generosity from our first email exchange, truly was such a gift to our journey. You significantly helped 'sketch' our itinerary, a trip to be remembered. I still am suffering from Spanish fever and cannot wait to return. And Erizo, never again will a bite be taken without an immediate flashback to the streets of Barbate. That is true culinary bliss, a bite with a memory attached.

From the first contact Annie was so friendly and helpful – and patient with all my questions as I tried to work out how to get to Vejer from Seville by public transport!
