Chorizo is the cured sausage of Spain, and this is Cinco Jotas’ first. It is made in Jabugo from the meat of 100% Ibérico, acorn-fed pigs raised free-range on the dehesas of south-west Spain. These are the same pigs and the same curing cellars behind the house’s jamón and paleta.

It is a deep-red chorizo, seasoned with paprika, and the acorn-fed fat runs through every slice. It comes thinly sliced and ready to eat. Lay it out on a charcuterie board next to the jamón, eat it with good bread and olives, or put it in a bocadillo. Bring it to room temperature first so the fat softens and the flavour opens up.

Producer: Cinco Jotas has been curing Ibérico ham in Jabugo since 1879. The town’s mountain microclimate shapes the curing, and the house breeds only 100% Ibérico pigs, fattened on acorns on the dehesa. This chorizo is the first the house has made.

Ingredients: 100% Iberico Pork Meat, sea salt, dextrin, paprika, destrose, spices, sugar, colour, acidity regulator, potassium nitrate, sodium nitrate, antioxidant

Storage: Refrigerate. Once opened, consume within 2–3 days for best quality. Remove from the fridge 15–20 minutes before serving to bring to room temperature.

Net: 70g

Remove from the fridge 15–20 minutes before serving. Lay the slices on a plate — ideally a slightly warm plate — and allow them to come to room temperature. The fat should soften and become glossy, releasing the nutty, herbal aroma that defines acorn-fed Ibérico. Eating cold from the fridge mutes the flavour and texture completely.

Serve on its own or as part of a charcuterie board alongside the Cinco Jotas jamón, lomo, or presa for a full Ibérico tasting.

Pair with crusty bread, pan con tomate, ripe melon, fresh figs, Manchego, or a handful of Marcona almonds.

For a classic Spanish pairing, serve with a glass of chilled Fino or Manzanilla sherry. A dry, crisp white wine or a light, young red from Rioja also works well.

Order cut-off and delivery dates

Orders placed before 2pm, Monday to Friday, are dispatched the same day, unless you choose a later delivery date on the basket page.

How we send it

We ship with express couriers, usually DPD or DHL, in insulated packaging that holds temperature through the network. Occasional delays happen, and everything is packed to stay in good condition if transit is longer than planned.

Time-sensitive and event orders

We can't guarantee arrival on a given day — the couriers set their own schedules. Everything leaves us in good condition with good use-by dates, but the final timing is theirs.

If your order is for an event, please tell us in the notes at checkout. We can often send it a day earlier to give it the best chance of arriving in time.

Changes after dispatch

Once your parcel is with the courier we can't redirect it or change the delivery details.

Saturday delivery

Saturday delivery is available. Our office is closed at weekends and the couriers have no phone support then, so if your order must arrive on a particular day, a weekday delivery gives us more room to help should anything go wrong.
