100% Iberian Acorn Shoulder. "Pata Negra"
Ham is the noble piece par excellence. It comes from animals over 22 months old and weighing 160 kilos. The hams are simply added sea salt and, after a brief salting period, they are first transferred to the drying room and then to the cellar. In total, more than 24 months of curing and maturation, during which chemical changes and the formation of aromatic compounds occur, resulting in a loss of around 35% of their weight when fresh.
The black hoof, synonymous with the authenticity of its genetics, and the thin cane are characteristic of 100% Iberian acorn hams. Among its attributes, the "flavour" (smell, taste, and texture combined), the shiny lean meat, and the fluidity of the fat, which are unmistakable and make, when tasted, a series of sensory perceptions awaken the senses, enhancing its unbeatable "bouquet".
They are 100% Iberian Acorn Hams completely certified by accredited certifying entities according to the Iberian Standard set out in Royal Decree 4/2014.
