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!

Jamón is Spain's most prized delicacy, and this is your chance to finally understand it.
Over four hams, you taste your way from everyday serrano to acorn-fed ibérico that literally melts in your mouth. Your host reads each bite for you: the breed of pig, the oak woodlands where it fed on acorns, the region that shaped it, and the years of salt and patience behind the cure.
Barcelona sits minutes from the cava country of the Penedès, and each ham arrives with a cava chosen to match it, poured on its own first, then against the ham, so you feel the salt soften the wine and the bubble strip the fat in real time. By the third piece, the difference isn't described to you, it's proven in your mouth.
We pour curated pieces from more than one producer, so you taste the real range of Spanish ham instead of a single house style. The cava leads its own show, and a warm host turns the plate into something you understand, at a pace that leaves room for conversation and delicious silence.
You leave able to read any jamón label like a local, and why not, impress people by actually leading your own tasting at home.
