Jamón Tasting with Cava Pairing The Art of Spain's Finest Ham Discount Tickets

Overview

Discover why jamón is Spain's most prized delicacy, on a 90 minute tasting designed to immerse you in the culture behind every slice. You climb through four Spanish hams, each paired with a Brut Nature cava chosen to make it taste even better. Start with an everyday serrano, your baseline, then meet the ibérico, where the breed shows itself in fat marbled through the muscle. The leap comes with acorn-fed ibérico from pigs raised in the oak woodlands on nothing but acorns, where the salt fades and the fat melts on your tongue into toasted hazelnut. Along the way you learn the art of cutting jamón, and why cava, not wine, is the ham's natural partner. Your host reads each bite for you: the breed, the acorns, the region, and the years of curing behind it. You leave able to decode any label like a local. Come hungry. Leave understanding why Spain is the world's mecca for cured ham. This tasting is indoors, so we run rain or shine!
