The Iberico grass-fed shoulder ham is a single piece obtained from the forelimbs of the Iberian pig, characterised by its streamline shape, the fineness of its shaft, with a black hoof, soft shiny fat and smooth texture. It has an attractive, subtle flavour with an extremely prolonged aroma at the palate. The shoulder ham comes from Iberico pigs raised in a semi-extensive regime that feed on aromatic grasses, legumes and natural grains which are prime in sodium, fibre and protein. Small white-coloured “specks” or “crystals” can also be seen when cut, that are an indication of a slow curing process and coffee salinity.
Curation time: 20 months.
Origin: Extremadura – Spain.
