The Mixed-Fed Iberian Hams ‘5B’ by Estirpe Negra are made with the hind leg of prime Iberian Pigs, which are carefully selected pig farms in Extremadura (Spain). Here, the pigs are reared semi-extensively at the largest expanses of ‘Dehesas’ (grazing pastures) found at the Iberian Peninsula. These hams are the results of an on-going quality-improvement project over the last 20 years, in collaboration with Iberian pig farmers, under the keep an eye on and supervision of Estirpe Negra, in addition to several animal nutrition companies. This project is aimed at making improvements to the quality and bouquet of these hams, by the use of a special diet in line with cereals and other natural ingredients. This ends up in the Iberian Hams ‘5B’ having a more fluid and healthy fat, which is streaked during the meat, a better aroma with a smooth intense flavour, a fine texture, and at the same time, being low in salt. Presentation: Whole ham, with ‘traditional’ V cut skin. Curing: 29 – 36 Months
