Sliced 50% Iberian Breed Bellota Paleta
Sliced 50% Iberian Breed Bellota Paleta
The 50% Iberian Breed Acorn-fed Ham Shoulder, Sliced is the perfect option to enjoy the intense flavor of acorn-fed products with maximum convenience. It comes from Iberian pigs with 50% breed purity, raised in pastures and fed acorns, natural grasses, and natural resources during the "montanera" season.
Its sliced format allows it to be served directly at the table, without the need for prior cutting or preparation. Each packet preserves the soft texture, intramuscular fat, and characteristic aroma of a traditionally cured acorn-fed Iberian ham shoulder.
Thanks to its smaller size compared to ham, the shoulder concentrates the nuances of the acorn very well, offering a deep, persistent, and slightly sweet flavor, with nutty notes and a very pleasant juiciness in the mouth.
It is ideal for appetizers, Iberian platters, celebrations, gourmet gifts, or for those who want to always have a high-quality product ready to eat.

Acorn-fed diet and pasture rearing
During the "montanera" season, Iberian pigs feed on acorns, natural grasses, and natural resources from the pastures. This diet is key to achieving a more aromatic fat, a creamier texture, and a deeper flavor.
The acorn provides characteristic nuances, greater persistence in the mouth, and that elegant touch that differentiates acorn-fed Iberian products.
Traditional curing
This ham shoulder has undergone a slow and controlled curing process for a minimum of 36 months. This time allows the product to develop its aroma, concentrate its flavor, and achieve a balanced texture.
Once it reaches its optimal point, the piece is sliced and vacuum-packed to preserve its qualities until consumption.
Consumption recommendations
To enjoy it at its ideal point, it is recommended to take the packet out of the refrigerator a few minutes before consumption and leave it at room temperature, approximately between 18 ºC and 20 ºC.
When the fat begins to look shiny, the slices separate better and release their full aroma. The sealed packet can also be run under warm water for a few seconds to speed up tempering.
Open just before serving to maintain maximum freshness.
Storage and shelf life
Store in a cool, dry place, protected from direct sunlight.
The shelf life of the vacuum-packed product is 180 days, provided that the indicated storage conditions are respected.
Once opened, keep refrigerated and consume within a few days to maintain its texture, aroma, and flavor.
