Senorio Acorn Fed 100% Iberico Ham, Hand-Carved 100g (Great Taste Gold Award)

Description

This DOP Extremadura Ibérico de bellota ham is made from animals that have fattened on acorns for 10 -12 weeks on the local dehesa and have then been cured in Badajoz for more than 3 years.

The end result is a superb, succulent ham with an intense savoury aroma, a complex mature flavours that combines sweet nuttiness with a salty depth and has a long, deep, lingering aftertaste. Both the flavour and texture are just magnificent! Even the fat tastes good.

How to eat Ibérico Ham?

Iberico ham is best served at room temperature (around 20c), like that the fat in the ham starts to soften giving it a yielding texture and the flavours really open up.

If stored in a fridge, take the packet out 90 minutes ahead, and 10 minutes prior to serving open the packet and peel apart the slices. Please note this is almost impossible to do from cold.

The flavour is so good, we would recommend just enjoying it on it’s own. Or enjoy with other quality Spanish products such as varied tapas, a good manchego cheese and Manzanilla wine.
