100% Iberico de Bellota, Pata Negra
Ham from bellota-grade purebred Iberian pigs, salt (2%), sugar (<0.1%), antioxidant E-301, acidity regulator E-331(iii) and preservative E-252. Gluten free.
Ham from purebred Iberian pigs reared on the open range in Spanish woodlands on a diet of acorns during the fattening period.
Once weaning is complete, the pigs begin to feed on high-quality feed (cereals and legumes) and natural pasture in vast wooded areas until the montanera (acorn season) begins, when the acorns ripen and fall, becoming their main source of food for 3 or 4 months.
It is important to bear in mind that the diet prior to the acorn-feeding season is not aimed at fattening, as is the case with pigs destined for lower-quality products. The animal entering the pasture is lean and muscular. In short, it is prepared to be able to walk and climb up and down the hills. Low-quality fats that would alter the flavour of the ham are avoided.
Visually, they are beautifully shaped pieces, with no excess external fat. Aromatically, the complex scents so typical of the Sierra de Huelva stand out.
Additives are used with great moderation. In fact, some of them are practically absent by the time the ham is consumed, as they decompose over the years.
Below you can see how we package our hams and shoulders in their different formats. If you purchase several hams or shoulders, before confirming your order you will be able to choose whether you want us to send them to you individually each in their own box, or if you prefer us to group them together in as few boxes as possible.
We ship the whole ham wrapped in grease-free paper and an outside cloth wrapper, all encased in a plastic bag for maximum hygiene. When you receive it, take it out of the bag and remove all the wrapping. You can keep it hung by the string at room temperature for up to 6 months before starting it. Once cutting has started, consume it in 1-2 months.
We remove the rind and the bone, cutting it into as many parts as you wish, and vacuum wrap each piece separately. We leave only the edible fat (ready to slice and serve).
We slice your entire ham and wrap the slices in 100-gram vacuum packs, separating them with plastic strips for easier serving.
We can slice the ham by machine (+£30.75) or with a knife (+£66.27).
We ship to all countries in the European Union, United Kingdom, Isle of Man and Monaco.

The slicing of a ham with a knife is part of the genuine, quality Iberico ham tasting experience. It is a simple process too, with the right equipment. Nevertheless, certain safety measures should be observed.
