CINCO JOTAS - WHOLE JAMÓN IBÉRICO PALETA
Cinco Jotas Jamón Ibérico de Bellota - Whole Bone-In Ham
Created in Jabugo in southwest Spain, the birthplace of acorn-fed Iberian ham, a Cinco Jotas ham is exceptional in every way. Each ham is unique and results from 4-5 years of maturation in the Jabugo curing cellars.
Create your magnificent masterpiece, sculpt your very own ham, and impress everyone with your talents on display alongside the most exclusive ham in the world.
A Unique Ritual Passed Down Through Generations
A Cinco Jotas acorn-fed 100% ibérico ham can be appreciated using all the senses: the warmth when holding it in your hands, the succulent smooth texture in your mouth, and the herbal aromas that combine nutty acorns with natural herbs.
Tasting Notes: Acorn flavour, toasted hazelnuts and wildflowers. Soft, juicy and unctuous.
Cutting Guide
Maza (rounded side): The most attractive area and easiest to cut. The slices have an intense reddish colour due to intense muscular infiltration. This is the sweetest and juiciest piece.
Contramaza (opposite side): Fibrous and flavourful with the least fat. Dark red mahogany colour and the most cured.
Punta (tip): Can be cut into cubes or slices. Distinguished by its juiciness and strong flavour.
Jarrete (hock): Surprisingly juicy despite its fibrous texture. Easy to dice at home.
About the Natural Mould Layer
It is normal for the ham to develop a mould layer during curing. This appears naturally to stabilise the fats and the bacteria or yeasts favour more natural, healthy curing, giving the ham its characteristic aroma. Similar to aged cheeses and salami, it is generally superficial and does not affect the ham below. It is not harmful to health. Remove using a clean cloth (one that doesn't shed fibres) lightly moistened with olive or sunflower oil.
