JAMACUCO

The mineral wealth of our land provides the perfect raw material for growing perfect peppers... With the arrival of autumn, the fields of the Ribera Alta of Navarra are dotted with an intense red and in the towns of the area, the canneries begin a frenetic activity. The pepper of the Piquillo bursts every season with its customary color soaking the air of aromas of firewood and charcoal. Because if something characterizes the authentic Piquillo pepper of Navarra of other similar peppers is that, after roasting direct flame, it is peeled and cleaned without the fruit touching the water or any other chemical solution. This ensures its unparalleled flavor... Jamacuco. Sudden sensation that alters our senses for an instant and then retreats into oblivion. It's the magic of fireworks. It is the descent of a roller coaster. It has the intensity of a bonfire on the night of San Juan. This is Jamacuco. A spicy sauce that reminds us of the cool nights on the Sacramento River and the sunrises..
