Trabacuartos 50% Iberian Bellota Shoulder Ham

Indulge in the unparalleled taste of the Finca Trabacuartos 50% Iberian Bellota Shoulder Ham, a true Spanish gastronomic treasure. This magnificent Iberian Bellota Shoulder Ham comes from 50% Iberian bred pigs, a testament to its authentic quality.
These specially selected pigs roam freely in the vast Spanish dehesas, feasting exclusively on nutrient-rich acorns (bellotas) during the ‘montanera‘ season. This natural diet, combined with ample exercise, is crucial to developing the unique flavour and the beautiful marbling of intramuscular fat that defines top-tier Iberian hams.

Our Finca Trabacuartos shoulder ham undergoes a meticulous curing process, typically lasting over 24 months, in natural cellars. This extended maturation allows the flavours to deepen and concentrate, resulting in a rich, complex profile with a characteristic aroma and a succulent, tender texture that practically melts in your mouth. Each slice reveals a vibrant, reddish-pink hue with streaks of pearly white fat, a visual promise of the intense, nutty flavour that awaits.

A Healthy Fat!

Beyond the exquisite sliced ham, this package thoughtfully includes the tocino (Iberian fat). The highly prized Ibérico tocino, known for its rich, aromatic properties, is a culinary gem in itself. It’s perfect for rendering down to use in traditional Spanish stews, adding incredible depth to soups, or even as a flavourful base for sautéing vegetables.

Perfect for special occasions, sophisticated appetisers, or simply as a delightful treat, this Iberian Bellota Shoulder Ham is a versatile delicacy. Serve it thinly sliced at room temperature to fully appreciate its intricate nuances and smooth, oily texture. Whether you’re a seasoned connoisseur or discovering the wonders of Spanish charcuterie, the Finca Trabacuartos Bellota Shoulder Ham promises an unforgettable culinary journey. Experience the rich heritage and exceptional quality of genuine Spanish Iberian ham.
