Don Finardo Madrid

Jamón de bellota

Cesar from Madrid

""Don Finardo" in Madrid is a small gourmet shop that excels in Iberico acorn-fed ham. Make sure to try different purities to find your favorite!"

Gourmet shops have a special allure, a magnetism that's hard to resist, and Don Finardo in Madrid epitomizes this allure to the fullest. This intimate boutique is a sanctuary for aficionados of Iberico acorn-fed ham, which takes center stage here. What's more, Don Finardo takes pride in crafting their own hams in Guijuelo, Salamanca — a region renowned in Spain for its exemplary ham production.

If the idea of traveling with an entire ham resonates with your culinary ambitions, Don Finardo is ready to accommodate. However, if the logistics prove challenging, fret not. The store offers on-the-spot slicing, vacuum-packing your selection into convenient packages, ensuring your travel remains hassle-free — provided your destination's customs regulations are obliging.

While the 100% acorn-fed ham garners much attention, and rightly so, here's a tip from a fellow enthusiast: venture into the 50% and 75% purity variants. Each offers a distinctive palate experience, and as the saying goes, "taste is subjective." You might find a new favorite.

But Don Finardo is more than just ham. The shop is a treasure trove of Spanish delicacies, from artisanal cheeses and wines — perfect companions for a plate of jamón — to mouth-watering preserves. The ribs, pork loin, and chorizo, all preserved in oil, stand out as my personal recommendations.

Don Finardo is a proud member of the Chaîne des Rôtisseurs Spain, the esteemed global gastronomic association. A visit here is not just shopping; it's an indulgence in culinary excellence.

About me I was born in Madrid, but I've lived here and there due to my job in the tech industry, having spent half my life traveling the world. Thanks to that, I've had the chance to meet people from all sorts of cultures and with diverse tastes. This sparked my curiosity to learn more about how people live in their own countries. Eventually, I left the tech industry and spent more than a decade traveling the world, camera in hand, exploring cuisines that were new to me - I'm that friend who always gets asked for restaurant recommendations. My passion for gastronomy l...
