5 Jotas Shoulder Ham

The 100% Iberian Acorn-Fed Shoulder Ham 5 Jotas is a gourmet jewel, sourced from the front leg of purebred Iberian pigs raised free-range in the Jabugo pasturelands. Fed exclusively on acorns during the montanera season, this delicacy is cured by hand for 24 to 36 months, concentrating an unmatched intensity of flavour and a marbled fat that melts smoothly on the palate.

History and tradition of 5 Jotas

Since 1879, 5 Jotas has been an undisputed benchmark in the production of 100% Iberian acorn-fed ham. Born in Jabugo, in the very heart of the Sierra de Huelva, the brand has preserved for over a century the artisanal expertise passed down from generation to generation. Its commitment to the purity of the Iberian breed, free-range rearing, and natural acorn-based feeding during the montanera has made 5 Jotas a symbol of excellence and international prestige. Each piece embodies a legacy of Spanish history, culture, and artisanal tradition.

Characteristics of 5 Jotas ham

Due to its smaller size, this shoulder ham is perfect for those who seek 5 Jotas quality in a practical format. Ideal for gourmet platters, exclusive gifts or serving at celebrations, without sacrificing an ounce of the excellence that defines the brand.

Key features:

  • Extended curing (24–36 months) that concentrates the flavour and enhances the nuances of acorn-fed Iberian pork.
  • Deep flavour and noble fats with balanced, lingering aromas of nuts.
  • Compact, elegant format—ideal for immediate consumption, gifting or creating a select appetiser.

Storage advice for 5 Jotas shoulder

  • Keep between 20 and 25 °C
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
  • Cover the cut with slices of fat to preserve aroma and juiciness.

Why choose 5 Jotas shoulder ham

Choosing a 5 Jotas shoulder ham means enjoying the same tradition and excellence as the leg, in a more accessible format with an even more intense flavour. It comes from 100% purebred Iberian pigs raised free-range in the pastures of Jabugo and fed exclusively on acorns during the montanera season. Its artisanal curing process concentrates aromas and nuances, delivering a unique gastronomic experience, ideal both for everyday enjoyment and as an exceptional gourmet gift.

Authenticity of the Iberian breed

The 5 Jotas shoulder comes from 100% purebred Iberian pigs, raised free-range in the dehesas of Jabugo. This genetic purity guarantees meat marbled with fat rich in oleic acid, which provides juiciness, a smooth texture, and a distinctive flavour full of character.

Concentrated artisanal curing

Its curing process is shorter than that of the leg, which intensifies the flavours and enhances the natural aromas of acorns and the dehesa. Each piece matures slowly in traditional cellars, reaching the perfect balance between intensity and elegance.

Prestige and tradition

Like the ham, the 5 Jotas shoulder enjoys international prestige and is valued by chefs and Iberian ham lovers around the world. It is part of Spain’s cultural and gastronomic heritage, backed by more than 140 years of excellence.
