パレタ・グラン・レセルバ - セレクション

The thin, even slices melt on the tongue in a way that’s hard to describe, and the deep, nutty aftertaste lingers just long enough. I’ve tried plenty of cured hams, but this one’s marbling hits a different level of richness. Already planning the next board for guests.

Opened the pack for a weekend snack and the marbling runs right through every slice, giving it that rich, buttery texture you only get from proper acorn-fed ibérico. The curing is spot on, not too salty, and it holds up beautifully on warm toast.

The first slice melts on your tongue in a way that feels almost unfair to the rest of the ham I've had this year. That deep, cured aroma hits right before the texture gives, and the marbling is spot on for a gran reserva. I've already ordered a second one for the holidays.
