100% Iberian acorn-fed shoulder ham. “Pata Negra” Navarretinto
Ham is the noble cut par excellence. It comes from animals over 22 months old and weighing 160 kilos. Only sea salt is added to the hams and, after a brief salting period, they are first moved to the drying room and then to the cellar. In total, more than 24 months of curing and maturation, during which, in addition to chemical changes and the formation of aromatic compounds, the fresh weight is reduced by around 35%.
Characteristic features of 100% Iberian acorn-fed hams include the black hoof, synonymous with the authenticity of their genetics, and the slender shank. Among their attributes are their “flavour” (a combination of aroma, taste and texture), glossy lean meat and the fluidity of the fat, which are unmistakable and, when tasted, create a series of sensory perceptions that awaken the senses, enhancing their unsurpassed “bouquet”.
These are 100% Iberian acorn-fed hams fully certified by accredited certification bodies in accordance with the Iberian Standard set out in Royal Decree 4/2014.
