Flavours
of Spain has reinforced its reputation as the UK's leading supplier
of artisan produce from Galicia and Northern Spain, with the
introduction of an exceptional selection of charcuterie.
The new range features delicious
dry cured and smoked meats from Iberia and Galicia, including
superior hand-sliced lomo iberico bellota, jamon iberico bellota and
chorizo iberico bellota sourced from Iberian producer Sierra de
Monesterio. Based in the southern region of Extremadura, this area is
home to centuries-old oak trees that yield some of the world's
sweetest acorns, giving the meat of the traditionally raised,
acorn-fed Iberian pigs its distinct texture and full flavour.
Master craftsmen trim, massage,
fillet and salt the hams, using time-honoured techniques in
preparation for their entry into natural drying rooms. Each ham
spends 3 years under the care and supervision of the master craftsmen
to enable the curing process to take place before being individually hand-sliced.
Perfectly complementing their
existing range of Galician produce, Flavours of Spain now offers a
number of exclusive charcuterie products from Xamons A Paradanta - a
small producer located at the foot of the A Paradanta Mountains in
Galicia. The region is synonymous with traditional ham production,
with producers working closely with local people who possess lifelong
experience in creating the finest hams and sausages.
The Atlantic mountain climate -
hot, dry summers and cold winters - combined with the cutting-edge
technology the company has developed to enhance traditional
production methods without diminishing quality, is ideal for curing
pork products. As such, Xamons A Paradanta is rightly revered for its
hams and sausages throughout the Galicia region.
Teresa Homes, director of
Flavours of Spain, said: "Our new charcuterie selection is a
wonderful addition to our existing range of Spanish produce;
including unique seaweeds and seafood preserves, limited production
wines and award-winning extra virgin olive oils.
"We embarked upon
numerous comparative blind tastings to ensure the taste, texture and
quality of our cured meats is second to none, reassuring our
customers that they need look no further than our website when
purchasing artisan Spanish produce - we're a one-stop shop!"
