Overview

Welcome to the most comprehensive ham tasting experience, where you will enjoy seven types of the highest quality ham, a selection of three gourmet cheeses ranging from the most intense to the mildest, and a perfect pairing with Spanish wines, including cava, white wine and red wine.

During the tasting, our Master Ham Cutter will guide you in discovering the secrets of each type of ham, explaining its origins, curing methods, and how factors such as the breed of pig, its diet, and the climate influence its flavour and texture. The tour ranges from Gran Reserva to the exclusive 100% Bellota ham, allowing you to appreciate the evolution of flavours and textures.

Just a few steps from the Sagrada Familia, this tasting is a sensory experience that combines tradition, flavour and knowledge in 90 minutes of immersion. Whether you live in Spain or are visiting Barcelona, this experience is unmissable, one of a kind and destined to remain in your memory long after you have experienced it.
