David De la Riva Rodríguez | Cárnicas Campomanes
Biography
David de la Riva Rodríguez is the third generation to lead Cárnicas Campomanes, a family business dedicated to the production of meat products in Campomanes, Asturias. He joined the business at the age of 17 and now runs both the butcher's shop and the charcuterie factory, maintaining a way of working based on traditional production and local produce.One of the pillars of his work is the production of traditional Asturian cured meats, particularly chorizo and morcilla, which undergo curing and smoking processes using oak wood. The company also works with pork, including gochu asturcelta, as well as producing salted meats and other meat products. Its production retains artisanal processes and seeks to preserve techniques passed down through generations.
De la Riva has also introduced new preparations and collaborations with chefs, working with meats such as cordero xaldo and venison. His work therefore combines the continuity of a family craft with the search for new applications for Asturian meat products.
