Cinco Jotas Acorn-fed 100% Ibérico Shoulder Ham (Whole Shoulder Bone-in ham) 9-12 lb
Acorn-fed, dry-cured 100% ibérico ham (shoulder)
Cinco Jotas shoulder ham comes only from pure-bred ibérico pigs raised free range in the scenic dehesas of southwest Spain. It takes about two years for the 100% ibérico pig to reach maturity, and some more years are required to cure the jamón in the bodegas (curing cellars).
This shoulder of the pig, sometimes referred to as "shoulder ham" and called paleta in Spanish, is a true Iberian delicacy. This delicious cut has plenty of meat and makes an ideal gift for "foodie" friends or simply to have at home for indulgent personal consumption.
