Benjamin Duarte explained to me why borrego, mutton, wasn't gamy. the regional lamb is healthy, free range, and has good food. it doesn't develop the off taste that ovejas are "famous" for. so, it was indeed mutton and not lamb or goat. but the price is low (about USD3 per pound) because of its bad rep.
