The 5J Cinco Jotas Ham is a 100% acorn-fed Iberian ham with black label certification from Jabugo. Made from purebred Iberian pigs raised free-range and fed on acorns, it is cured for 5 years under the supervision of master ham artisans, delivering the authentic Pata Negra flavor of Spain.
The 5J Cinco Jotas Ham is a 100% acorn-fed Iberian ham with a black label certification, the highest distinction within the Jabugo Designation of Origin. Only 1% of Spanish hams belong to this exclusive category, produced from purebred Iberian pigs raised free-range in the dehesas and fed exclusively on acorns.
Each 5J ham undergoes five years of natural curing and expert care in a unique environment. During this time, master ham artisans oversee every stage of maturation in the Jabugo cellars, where silence, temperature and humidity create the ideal conditions for perfection.
Its texture is smooth and juicy in the main cut, becoming firmer at the tip and shank. The flavor is rich and nuanced, with notes of acorn, toasted hazelnuts, damp wood and wildflowers. Every slice releases an intense, lingering aroma that captures the purity of acorn-fed Iberian ham.
At Jamon-iberico.eu, we offer carefully selected hams directly from the Cinco Jotas cellars in Jabugo, ensuring maximum freshness, optimal preservation and original brand packaging. An exceptional product that represents the true Pata Negra experience.
