Charcuteries Saint-Jean-Le-Vieux/Donazaharre

This family-run charcuterie has been in existence since 1884. With a network of 26 farms in the surrounding area, the production process is very short. And from the street, the store hides a mature business, a beautifully crafted, CE-standard laboratory and spectacular natural drying sheds. They offer a tour of the ham drying sheds, but first you'll have discovered this setting of rare authenticity. In the boutique, you'll be able to buy little marvels: hams, but not only hams...

It is in Saint-Jean-le-Vieux, that the Gastellou family has been established for several generations at the farm "Poutzia". From the breeding of meat cows and pigs in the open air, to the canning and salting of hams. At the foot of Arradoy, on a twenty-hectare forest, the animals evolve far from the industrial pace: artisanal products that are all the more tasty and flavorful. Dry-cured hams from Bayonne and Garazi, sausages, chorizos, ventrèches, rillettes, pâtés..., dishes cooked in jars and home-made Basque cakes! A beautiful know-how.
