Bernardo Hernandez Jamón Ibérico
Gold Label 30g (Pata Negra)

The finest quality of ham from the Iberico pig, aged 36 months. Bred in the province of Salamanca the pigs run freely feeding on grain and pasture at an early age. They’re then taken to the ‘Dehesas’ or ‘rolling meadows’ of Salamanca, Extremadura and Andalusia, where the pigs are completely fed on Acorn and pasture until they reach an ideal weight. With an intensely pleasing aroma, the flavour is very delicate, with the faintest hint of saltiness. The flesh is smooth & rich and the fat is lustrous and soft to the touch.
