The 3 Stages of the Premium Jamón & Wine Pairing
Compare all four Spanish curing classifications in one guided sensory tasting.
The 4 Varieties: From Gran Reserva to Ibérico de Bellota
Understand Spanish ham like an insider by tasting four distinct grades in ascending order of complexity: delicate Gran Reserva, marbled Ibérico de Cebo, free-range pasture Ibérico de Campo, and jewel-grade acorn-fed Ibérico de Bellota.
Live Knife Craft by a Professional Maestro Jamonero
Discover why hand-carving changes aroma and texture. Your Maestro Jamonero demonstrates traditional knife angles, temperature control, and how to read official Spanish bridle color labels before you ever buy ham at a market.
Spanish Wines & Sparkling Cava Pairing
Balance the rich oleic marbling of Iberian ham with curated Spanish wines and chilled sparkling Cava. Learn how acidity and fine bubbles cleanse the palate between each variety so every slice reveals its true nutty finish.

| Carving & Guidance | ✔ Guided step by step by a professional Maestro Jamonero explaining origin, curing months, and tasting notes | ✖ Cold pre-sliced platter left under heat lamps with zero explanation of breed or curing |
| Wine & Cava Pairing | ✔ Matched Spanish wines and Cava chosen to complement salty, sweet, and nutty Iberian nuances | ✖ Overpriced industrial sangria masking the flavor of the food |
| Takeaway Knowledge | ✔ Leave knowing how to recognize authentic Spanish ham labels across markets and bodegas for the rest of your trip | ✖ Hurried table turnover on crowded boulevards with hidden terrace surcharges |
