Jamon (gammon) & Paleta (shoulder ham)
The main difference between paleta (shoulder ham) and jamon (gammon) is in weight and ripening time. Furthermore, these two products come from the same Iberico pig and were raised on the same diet and in the same living conditions. The ripening/drying time of the Jamon is longer than that of a Paleta. A Jamon weighs between 7.5 and 9.5 kg and the Paleta between 4 and 6 kg. Due to the Paleta's smaller size, the meat is closer to the bone. As a result, the Iberico shoulder ham is known for a more intense and riper taste.
Our Jamones normally weigh between 8 and 8.5 kg and a Paleta usually weighs between 5 and 5.5 kg. If you only eat a plate of Iberico ham with 1 or 2 people every now and then, it is advisable to choose a Paleta. To preserve the best quality, you want to use up the Jamon or Paleta within 3 weeks after cutting.

Varieties and ripening times
-
Jamón Cebo (100 grams): This ham is matured for at least 24 months and comes from Iberian pigs that are fed mainly on cereals and legumes. This results in a mild, juicy flavour that is perfectly balanced with its soft texture.
-
Jamón Cebo de Campo (100 grams): This ham is matured for at least 26 months and comes from Iberian pigs that are allowed to roam freely in the fields and feed on a varied diet of grains, grasses and, to a lesser extent, acorns. This gives the ham a deeper, more complex flavour with subtle nutty notes.
