The jamón ibérico is pork raised humanely on our farm in a village in Castilla y León. We cured the ham for many years. This particular product is one of the front legs, or shoulder paleta, pieces from the Iberian pig. Iberian paletas are prized both for their smooth texture and rich, savory taste. A good Iberian paleta has regular flecks of intramuscular fat (marbling).The animal was fed an all-vegetarian diet, but was not fattened on acorns.
The term pata negra is also used to refer to jamón ibérico in general. The term refers to the color of the pigs' nails, which are white in traditional serrano white pork breeds, but black in Iberian pigs.
* Holder and Knife/Sharpener NOT included

In these periods, it is also advised to monitor the piece from time to time and if you see some mold, to simply clean it off with a clean paper towel and possible some olive or sunflower oil.
