JAMON SERRANO 12 MONTHS
The Product
Refers to a traditional Spanish dry-cured ham from white pigs, aged for about a year, sold as a whole hind leg, known for its rich flavor from salt curing and natural mountain air drying, often enjoyed in paper-thin slices as a tapas staple. The "12-Month" indicates a Reserva quality, signifying good maturation
Origin & Terroir
Produced throughout Spain's mountainous regions, where 'serrano' (from the sierra/mountains) indicates the traditional high-altitude curing method using cool, dry mountain air.
How to Enjoy
Slice thin for tapas, sandwiches, or wrapping around manchego cheese or melon. The 12-month 'Reserva' age offers excellent balance. Pairs with Spanish wines, sherry, or beer.
Did You Know?
