This exceptional gift box contains a treasure of Spanish cuisine. Jamón Ibérico de Bellota is made from pasture raised, acorn-fed Ibérico pigs that wander the Spanish countryside. This beautiful Cinco Jotas gift set includes a bone-in ham, a forged stainless jamonero knife and an exquisite cured pork loin.
Cinco Jotas Jamón Ibérico de Bellota is the ultimate centerpiece to holiday parties and family gatherings. Cut thin slices and serve on a warm tasting plate to release all the complex flavors. The ham will literally start to melt in your mouth as you take your first bite.
Cinco Jotas Lomo Ibérico de Bellota is a cured pork loin made from the same exceptional acorn-fed pork. Seasoned with sea salt and Pimentón de La Vera smoked paprika, it is aged for 90 days. Serve thin slices next to the jamón to compare their distinct flavors.
Also included is a forged Arcos jamón carving knife with a long and flexible for cutting the perfect slices.
Ibérico de Bellota ham by Cinco Jotas is aged for over two years as the sweet, nutty flavors develop. To gain the finest 'bellota' status, these animals wander the oak-tree studded countryside of western Spain, called the 'dehesa.' In the fall they feast on sweet, antioxidant rich acorns, literally 'bellotas' in Spanish, gaining up to five pounds a day. These acorns add a deep nutty flavor and melt-in-your-mouth texture that are the signature of Jamón Ibérico de Bellota.
Inside this deluxe gift box, your bone-in Cinco Jotas ham is encased in a zippered cloth bag.
A ham holder is not included with this set. We recommend using a sturdy holder so you can safely carve each delectable part of the jamón.
