Iberian Ham, Bellota Reserva - with Bone (Acorn fed, 30-36 months dried)

Iberian Pork ham, also know as "Pata Negra" in Spain, is cured and dried for several years to bring up its unique flavour. Iberic Pigs, specific to the spanish peninsula, are small black pigs that are traditionally raised in semi-liberty. There are 2 primary ways of feeding the pigs, that are usually appended to the name of the ham: "cebo" (natural feed mix) and "Bellota" (100% acorn fed for at least 3 months). The acorn fed pigs represent the top quality due to the additional unique flavor it adds to the ham.
