Granadul Gran Reserva is one of the finest and most distinctive Serrano hams available and is made without the use of chemical additives or preservatives. The shoulder (Paleta) is smaller than a whole leg and requires less curing time to develop the signature delicate, sweet and slightly nutty flavour. The meat is dark pink to ruby coloured, the fat is discreetly grained and has a melt-in-the-mouth quality. This makes Granadul Gran Reserva an ideal choice to experience one of the finest and most distinctive Serrano hams in a smaller format.

This ham comes with a discounted Gondola Holder (50% off the standard price of £29.95) which contains a sturdy pine wood stand (sourced sustainably) and a long, flexible knife for slicing. We have also included a copy of our cutting guide which will help you master the basics of safely slicing and serving ham.

Type of ham

This shoulder of Serrano ham is the highest grade available (Gran Reserva) and is made from specially selected white pigs. To achieve Gran Reserva status, Serrano shoulders (Paleta) are cured for at least 9 months. This is less time than is required to cure a whole leg as the Paleta is smaller and has a higher proportion of fat. As a result, the shoulder has a slightly firmer texture, a more intense flavour and a darker colour of meat compared with other Serrano grades. The ham is delivered as a whole leg with bone.
