8-9kg Iberico Jamon de Bellota From Andalucia

from Iberico Pigs Fed with Acorns and 100% Natural Curation Process

In Spain, Iberico Bellota ham represents one of the highest expressions of traditional curing craftsmanship. It is the result of nature, time and expertise. This whole Iberico Ham Bellota comes from free-range pigs raised in the Spanish dehesa, a unique landscape of oak forests where animals roam freely and feed naturally on acorns during the montanera season. This natural diet gives the ham its characteristic marbling, depth of flavour and refined texture. Classified under the official Spanish Iberico quality standard as Bellota (Red Label), this ham guarantees controlled breeding, natural feeding and traditional production methods. Cured for over 48 months, it develops a complex aroma, deep red colour and a long, elegant finish with subtle nutty notes and balanced saltiness. Made using only Iberico pork and sea salt, it contains no additives or preservatives. Every piece reflects a commitment to authenticity and craftsmanship. The whole leg format (8–9 kg) offers the ultimate Spanish carving experience at home. Perfect for special occasions, celebrations or gourmet enjoyment. The Black Hoof was founded by a Spanish family living in the UK with a simple goal: to bring genuine Spanish jamón to British tables without compromise. By working directly with trusted producers in Spain, we ensure every ham reflects the tradition and quality we grew up with. Authentic Iberico Bellota — crafted by nature, perfected by time.

Before you buy

It is important to understand Whole Iberico Hams when purchasing one. Iberico Hams generally yield 50%. That means you might expect to get around 4 Kg. of ham slices out of this leg if sliced properly. Everything else is fat and bones. Also Iberico Hams are 50% or 75% Iberico breed. Only Black Labels are 100% Iberico breed, also known as Pata Negra. But this is not really an important quality for the final product as what really matters is the lifestyle of the animal, their nutrition and the time of curation. Once your ham arrives, remove all the packaging and keep it at room temperature, it will last for another year! Once open, it will be good for another 45 days or so before it becomes drier. Just cover the surface with cling film when not in use. I hope this helps!
