Serrano Ham Gran Reserva Duroc "Nobleza Castellana"

Duroc ham comes from Duroc pigs, a breed originally from the U.S., and it is the only one allowed to be crossbred with Iberian pigs. It is known for its high intramuscular fat, which gives it juiciness, a mild and slightly sweet flavor, and a tender texture.

It is more affordable than Iberian ham but of higher quality than white pork ham. It is used both as a pure breed ham and in crossbreeding with Iberian pigs to enhance quality. While it doesn’t reach the complexity of Iberian ham, it is an excellent choice for its great value for money.
