Hand-Carved Summum Acorn Fed 100% Ibérico Ham, 100g

Sweet dominates savoury. Earthy, grassy, toasted nuts. Pigs forage in woodlands. The King of hams.

Freshly hand-carved by a master carver in our Balham Deli.

The Eíriz bellota ham is made from free range pigs of 100% Ibérico breed that have fattened up on acorns on the dehesa of Extremadura for 10-12 weeks. The hams are then expertly cured in Jabugo in Huelva, one of the most famous Ibérico ham curing towns in Spain. 

This ham has been cured for 3 years to create intense, complex flavours and aromas.

Jamones Eiriz have been producing Ibérico hams in the town of Corteconcepción, situated in the mountains of the Sierra de Aracena, north of Seville, since near the beginning of the 19th century.

Their artisan production methods keep things as traditional as possible and create some remarkable hams.

For best results, remove from fridge at least 30 minutes before serving.

How to enjoy: Place the slices on a warm plate for the fat to melt slightly. Eat the slices with pan de coca Catalan bread or picos de pan.

*Please be aware that, depending upon which part of the ham your pack has been carved from, the proportion of delicious acorn fat to lean meat will vary.
