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.

Paleta Cebo and Paleta Cebo de Campo Iberico Ham from Guijuelo, Spain

What is the difference?
Paleta Cebo hams are perfect for those who want to enjoy the delicious taste of Iberico ham at an affordable price. These hams are fed primarily on grains and raised indoors or in limited outdoor areas, resulting in a less complex flavor.
Paleta Cebo de Campo offers a middle ground between Cebo and Bellota. The pigs have a mixed diet and graze in the wild, which contributes to a richer and more complex taste. This makes the Paleta Cebo de Campo an excellent choice for those looking for a premium experience without the higher costs of Bellota hams.
Taste the differences
Whether you choose the affordability and delicious taste of Paleta Cebo, or the richer, more complex taste of Paleta Cebo de Campo, you are sure to enjoy the refined flavors and high quality of our Iberico hams.
Optional: ham holder and/or knife
Complete your experience by ordering your Spanish ham with a ham holder and knife. Our basic ham holder and knife are perfect for occasional use. If you plan to enjoy Spanish ham more often and cut it yourself, we recommend purchasing one of our quality knives or premium ham holders. These provide a better cutting experience and are designed for long-term use.
