Jamon (gammon) & Paleta (shoulder ham)
The main difference between paleta (shoulder ham) and jamon (gammon) is in weight and ripening time. Furthermore, these two products come from the same Iberico pig and were raised on the same diet and in the same living conditions. The ripening/drying time of the Jamon is longer than that of a Paleta. A Jamon weighs between 7.5 and 9.5 kg and the Paleta between 4 and 6 kg. Due to the Paleta's smaller size, the meat is closer to the bone. As a result, the Iberico shoulder ham is known for a more intense and riper taste.
Our Jamones normally weigh between 8 and 8.5 kg and a Paleta usually weighs between 5 and 5.5 kg. If you only eat a plate of Iberico ham with 1 or 2 people every now and then, it is advisable to choose a Paleta. To preserve the best quality, you want to use up the Jamon or Paleta within 3 weeks after cutting.

Pata Negra: First-class Ibérico ham
The intense nutty flavor and soft texture of this ham melts in your mouth. The milky fat contrasts perfectly with the rich meat. These unique properties are the result of the diet and careful rearing of the Ibérico pig.
Pata Negra refers to the black hoof of the Ibérico pig and is properly used for 100% Ibérico Bellota ham.
