About Ham iberic

Ham Iberic, or Jamón Ibérico, is a prized Spanish delicacy made from the meat of black Iberian pigs. Renowned for its rich, nutty flavor and melt-in-your-mouth texture, this dry-cured ham is produced through traditional methods, often aged for over a year. Its complex taste derives from the pigs' natural diet, including acorns in free-range environments, which contribute to its distinctive marbling. Nutritionally, Ham Iberic is high in protein, vitamins B1 and B12, and healthy monounsaturated fats, which may support heart health. However, it is also rich in sodium and saturated fats, so moderation is key. Originating in Spain, Jamón Ibérico is a centerpiece of Mediterranean cuisine, often served thinly sliced as an appetizer or paired with cheese and wine. This gourmet item combines artisanal craftsmanship with indulgent flavor, making it a cherished treat for special occasions.
