Delicious slices of Paleta Ibérica de bellota ham will surprise you with their tenderness and succulence.
Why choose Joselito paleta?
- 100% natural product – Joselito paleta comes from free-range Iberian pigs that live on pastures and feed on acorns and a natural diet with no added additives.
- Exceptionally complex flavour – the front leg offers a more intense aromatic profile, with deep nutty notes typical of a true Iberian paleta.
- Long ageing – more than two years of natural drying give the meat extraordinary tenderness, a rich aroma and a perfectly harmonious flavour.
- A legend among hams – Joselito is considered one of the most prestigious brands in the world, prized by chefs and gourmets alike for its uncompromising standards and a tradition spanning more than 150 years.
Paleta Iberica de Bellota is the front leg of the black semi-wild Iberian pig. Paleta differs from jamón not only in size but also in the flavour of the meat. While jamón is more succulent, paleta offers a range of different flavour intensities, and the fat is not infiltrated into the muscle structure in such fine veins. In the finish, paleta is lightly sweet and very delicate. It contains no artificial preservatives or colourings.
The company JOSELITO has a more than 150-year tradition of producing jamón. The hams are made today exactly as they were made by the great-grandfathers of today's producers. The entire production process is under very careful control. Over time, its uniqueness has won it fans not only in Spain. The company owns thousands of hectares of oak groves in the area around Salamanca, where the black semi-wild pigs graze.
The company is almost obsessed with controlling the quality of the pigs' lives. Iberian pigs live as if they were in the wild, they are happy and have no stress. Each pig has around 3 hectares of land at its disposal.
The acorns they eat contain large amounts of unsaturated fatty acids. These help reduce bad cholesterol. That's why meat from Iberian pigs is healthy.
How does the ageing process work?
The paletas are salted, but only as much as necessary. That's why Joselito hams are described as pleasantly sweet with a low salt content. During winter, the ageing process takes place, aided by the wind. The salt gradually draws water out of the meat. In spring and summer, a process takes place that looks as if the jamón is "sweating". Fat is released and penetrates the tissue. When autumn comes, the paletas are hung in natural underground cellars. This ensures constant humidity and a constant temperature throughout the ageing process. Thanks to these cellars, the hams age very slowly (for at least 24 months).
Selection is carried out by the Maestro Jamonero individually for each jamón/paleta. Only this way can we be sure of its top-class qualities.
Joselito was founded back in 1868 and remains to this day one of the most respected producers of ibérico hams in the world.
