This chorizo is a premium expression of the classic Spanish Cantimpalo-style chorizo, made using traditional methods rooted in the Basque Country. Crafted from coarsely ground pork and seasoned with smoked paprika, garlic, and salt, it delivers a deeper, more concentrated flavor profile that highlights the quality of the meat and careful curing.
Air-dried to achieve a firm yet sliceable texture, this chorizo offers balanced smokiness, savory pork richness, and a clean finish without excessive heat. Its well-defined structure makes it ideal for thin slicing on charcuterie boards, pairing with cheeses and bread, or incorporating into tapas and simple cooked dishes where its paprika-driven character can stand out.
Quijote Food was founded by Basque sportsmen who brought their homestyle chorizo-making traditions to Miami in the 1980s. Over four decades later, the company remains family-run, producing Spanish-style chorizo that honors tradition while meeting modern production standards.
