100% Iberian acorn-fed ham. "Pata Negra"
Ham is the noblest piece par excellence. It comes from animals over 22 months old and 160 kilos in weight. The hams are simply seasoned with sea salt and, after a short period of salting, they first go to the drying room and then to the cellar. In total, more than 36 months of curing and maturation, during which, in addition to the chemical changes and formation of aromatic compounds, a decrease of around 35% of their fresh weight occurs.
Characteristic of 100% Iberian acorn-fed hams are the "pata negra," synonymous with the authenticity of their genetics, and the thin shank. Among their attributes, the "flavour" (smell, taste, and combined texture), the bright lean meat, and the fluidity of the fat, which are unmistakable and make, when tasted, give rise to a series of sensory perceptions that awaken the senses, enhancing its unbeatable "bouquet."
They are 100% Iberian acorn-fed hams fully certified by accredited certifying entities according to the Iberian Standard set out in Royal Decree 4/2014.
