Each slice, cut from the finest meat, blesses the palate with a velvety texture that melts effortlessly, releasing a harmony of earthy, nutty notes underlined with whispers of sweetness. The generous marbling of delicate fat enhances the savory richness, evoking a sensory experience that lingers long after the last bite. Hand-crafted by the artisans at Boucheries Nivernaises, this Jamón Ibérico de Cebo is a testament to the brand’s commitment to traditional methods, quality, and exceptional flavor.

Pairings & Suggestions

Tapas: Jamón Alone or with Manchego

Slim slices of Jamón Ibérico, served alone, accentuate its unique taste profile. Paired with slivers of sharp, slightly salty Spanish Manchego cheese, it creates a timeless combination savored across Spain.

Wholesome Bread

The rustic touch of crusty bread complements the munificent textures of Jamón Ibérico. Drizzle with a hint of extra virgin olive oil for an authentic Spanish touch.

Spanish Wine

A glass of robust red wine such as Rioja or a crisp Andalusian Fino sherry underlines the rich palate of this luxurious ham, making each bite more sublime.

A Tale Wrapped in Tradition

Boucheries Nivernaises, an esteemed French butcher established in 1954, takes about 24 months to craft each exquisite piece of Jamón Ibérico, a product of centuries-old Spanish heritage. Select Iberian pigs are bred in the dehesa, a unique Spanish pasture speckled with holm oak and cork trees, fostering the delectable nuttiness of their diet in the final product. The meticulous attention to traditional methods and provenance upholds the brand’s commitment to maintain authenticity and supreme quality, making each Jamón Ibérico an edible work of art.

Storage Instructions

Store the product in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. For opened packages, ensure the ham is covered with a clean cloth to maintain its moisture and protect it from impurities. Vacuum-sealed products can be stored as they are. Best if consumed within a reasonable timeframe.
