The best way to enjoy Jamon Serrano is freshly sliced. A perfect foundation for parties or family gatherings, our signature Somalo Serrano Reserva Cured Ham provides one of the most traditional tastes of Spain at your fingertips for everyday cooking or entertaining. This delicious serrano ham will quickly find a home on the counter top of your kitchen where it will stay fresh for weeks while you slice off savoury goodness. Why not make this whole leg of Serrano ham the festive main centre piece of a meal, showcase it at parties for your guests to indulge in at their leisure, or add to soups and stews and other dishes? Jamon Serrano literally means mountain ham in Spanish and, of all the hams available in the UK, our Somalo Serrano Reserva Hams are the most authentic from this standpoint. Each ham is hung to dry in the cool, clean mountain air where it ages for up to 12 months. The curing process of Somalo Jamon Serrano is completely traditional.

Beautiful serrano ham. Its having very delicate and succulent taste. The only objection I have are the preservatives. I couldn't find any ham without nitrites (E250 E252), which is demostrated to be harmful for the health. I hope We can find nitrits free hams in future.

This was a purchase after much hunting on the internet and it was bought due to the high number of good reviews - I have not been disappointed. I have purchased about 5 or 6 jamon legs over the years and this is by far the best. There is plenty of protection provided by the fat and grease, lots of very tasty meat inside and it cuts like a dream. Other legs that I have bought, including ones I have had in Spain, have been much more fatty and fairly bland in taste - this is neither. It was well packaged, arrived very quickly and I suspect will only last a month or so, as the speed we are eating it. FULLY RECOMMENDED, will buy again.

Great service from Basco, Somalo Serrano Reserva ham arrived the same week. Wonderful quality, I'm now enjoying caving and eating it. The beautiful flavour takes me back to Madrid.

Llegó a tiempo para Navidad, pero está curado de forma irregular, por unas partes está más curado que por otras. Gracias

After being disappointed with a Serrano ham bought elsewhere last year, I decided to do my research. We choose BASCO (from many) because they are a U.K. independent supplier of authentic Spanish foods. Gave lots of info about the provenance of their hams, age, taste & storage. It was worth it! Our Serrano ham, arrived on time, beautifully boxed and most importantly: it tastes divine! We will be back for more.
