Best Before Date

Please refer to the date indicated on the product packaging or label.

Storage Conditions

Keep refrigerated.

Ideal storage temperature: 5–8 °C.
Ideal serving temperature: 20–24 °C.

For the best tasting experience, allow the ham to come closer to room temperature before serving. This allows its natural fat to soften and its aromas and flavours to develop fully.

Average Nutritional Values per 100 g

The ham has a high oleic acid content due to the pigs’ diet, which is based primarily on acorns, grasses and roots found naturally in the dehesa.

Its high content of quality protein makes it a nutritionally valuable food and contributes to the maintenance and growth of muscle mass.

Cinco Jotas 100% Iberian Acorn-Fed Ham is also a source of iron, an essential mineral involved in the normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin and in the normal transport of oxygen throughout the body.

It also contains vitamin B1 (thiamine) and naturally occurring amino acids such as tryptophan.

Authentic 100% Iberian Acorn-Fed Ham

100% Iberian Acorn-Fed Ham represents the highest category within the classification of Iberian ham. To qualify for this designation, the product must come from 100% purebred Iberian pigs and comply with the established requirements governing the animals’ diet and the production of acorn-fed Iberian ham.

During the montanera season, Iberian pigs roam freely through the dehesa and feed on the natural resources of this unique ecosystem, particularly acorns. This diet, combined with the genetics of the Iberian breed and the animals’ free-range activity, contributes to the distinctive sensory characteristics of authentic acorn-fed Iberian ham.

The result is a ham of remarkable aromatic complexity, with exceptional intramuscular fat and an outstanding balance between intensity, elegance and persistence.

Cinco Jotas: the tradition of Jabugo

Cinco Jotas (5J) is one of the most iconic names in the world of Iberian ham. Its history is intrinsically linked to Jabugo, in the Sierra de Aracena y Picos de Aroche, a region renowned for its centuries-old relationship with Iberian pigs and the production of exceptional cured hams.

Expertise passed down through generations and respect for the long curing process transform every Cinco Jotas ham into a unique gastronomic experience.

This is much more than ham. It is the result of a Spanish approach to gastronomy founded on exceptional raw ingredients, terroir, craftsmanship, time and patience.

How to Enjoy Cinco Jotas Boneless Ham

To fully appreciate its exceptional qualities, we recommend serving the ham at room temperature. This allows its natural intramuscular fat to soften and enhances the expression of its aromas, texture and complex flavours.

It can be enjoyed simply with excellent artisan bread, although a ham of this calibre also pairs beautifully with:

• Extra virgin olive oil
• Artisan bread
• Fresh tomato or Spanish pan con tomate
• Spanish cheeses
• Fino, Manzanilla and Spanish red wines
• Cava and other quality sparkling wines
• Premium Spanish gourmet products

And there is one simple rule worth remembering: the better the ham, the less it needs around it.

The Cinco Jotas 100% Iberian Acorn-Fed Boneless Ham is also an outstanding choice for gifting, sharing at celebrations or enjoying on special gastronomic occasions.

Its boneless format makes transportation, storage and slicing considerably easier, allowing you to enjoy one of the great icons of Spanish gastronomy with maximum convenience.
