Next, we provide you with all the elements to make the decision that best suits your palate and budget. Above all, one of the things that concerns us most as specialists in this field is for you to know that the best ham isn't the most expensive, but the one you like the most.

 

Types and Qualities of Ham

The first thing to understand is that Spanish ham comes in two classes:


Non-Iberian Ham or Grand Reserve

The Grand Reserve ham comes from white pigs. The second important thing to know is that white pigs are raised all over the planet. They are raised only on farms and fed with feed. It's the simplest of all types of ham and also the cheapest.

Grand Reserve Ham

Iberian Ham

Iberian ham comes from Iberian breed pigs whose mother is always 100% Iberian. It's raised only on the Iberian Peninsula. It's the only animal in the world capable of infiltrating fat into the muscle. This characteristic is what makes its ham so special and juicy.

In turn, Iberian ham comes in different qualities and flavors, depending on the diet and the percentage of Iberian breed in the pig, which can be 50%, 75%, or 100%. And of course, the prices will be related to the characteristics of the pig but above all to the curing process. An Iberian ham from a pig raised solely on a farm with feed and cured for 24 months cannot cost the same as an acorn-fed Iberian ham from a pig that has been raised in the wild and cured for over three years, with the care and patience of an expert.


The different Iberians are:


Cebo Iberian Ham

This ham comes from an Iberian pig fed on a farm with feed and cereals. Our cebo Iberian ham is cured for a minimum of 24 months if it's ham or 18 months if it's shoulder.

Acorn-Fed Iberian Ham

This ham comes from Iberian breed pigs whose mother is 100% Iberian and has also been fed on acorns and wild fruits during the last 4 months of its life, from November to March (Montanera).

100% Iberian Acorn-Fed Ham - Pata Negra

This ham comes from purebred Iberian pigs, meaning both parents are Iberian. It has also eaten acorns and wild fruits during the last 4 months of its life.


Our Flavors and Formats of Iberian Ham

As in any good dish, if the ingredients are important, so is the touch of the chef who will shape and flavor them. The same goes for making ham.

The Iberian pig is born the same throughout all of Spain, but each producing region gives its special touch thanks to several elements: climate, diet, and especially the manufacturing and curing process implemented by the expert "chef," as we call them at Enrique Tomás. Based on these elements, we have a classification of flavors that we'll detail for you below.

 

Our Flavors

Mild

The gentlest and most palatable ham. It's the "go-to" ham because it's so pleasant and elegant that everyone likes it. It's always a safe bet, especially for gifting!




Aromatic

A ham full of nuances and very aromatic both in aroma and flavor. Perfect curing for the most ardent ham lover.


Aromatic Flavor Ham


Flavorful

The flavorful ham is the most recent of all. Its production is smaller than what it usually is in other geographical areas. It's very deep, different. It's like an explosion of flavor that lingers on the tongue and in memory.


Flavorful Ham




Intense

The most international ham is the intense one. Its flavor is unmistakable due to its fullness and persistence on the palate. For ham lovers with discerning and robust palates.


Intense Flavor Ham




Formats

Whole Piece

The whole piece can be a ham (rear leg of the pig) or a shoulder (front leg of the animal). Available in all flavors and origins.


PIEZAS-DE-JAMON-VITOLAS
