Bellota means acorn. The 100% Iberian pigs it comes from feed on them in the montanera season, in the province of Salamanca. The ham then cures in natural cellars for 44 to 48 months. Set it on a ham stand and carve it at home.

The fat is translucent and melts as soon as it touches your tongue. The aromas lean towards nuts, undergrowth and wild herbs, with a sweet note and a long finish. The meat holds firm under the knife and turns tender in the mouth. For a ham of this weight, Spanish rules set a two-year minimum, and this one spends almost two more years in the cellar.
