New York, N.Y. – Cinco Jotas, the world-famous acorn-fed 100% Ibérico ham, announces the launch of unique and luxurious gifts to be shared with food-loving friends and families this holiday season. Guaranteed to impress the most discerning gourmets, these truly unique gifts, imported from Spain, are sure to be stand out and enhance any holiday celebration.
Highly regarded amongst the most prestigious chefs and connoisseurs around the world, Cinco Jotas, considered “Spain’s National Treasure,” is a class apart from the rest. These prized natural gourmet products can be enjoyed alone as an appetizer, at a cocktail party, or in combination with any holiday meal.
For the health conscious, acorn-fed 100% ibérico ham is the smart choice, and provides benefits of the Mediterranean diet, as this jamón is rich in omega-9 oleic fatty acid, typical of healthy vegetable oils such as olive oil. Indeed, the acorn-fed 100% ibérico pigs are often referred to as “olive trees with four legs.”
Cinco Jotas is considered the finest 100% Jamon Ibérico de Bellota (Bellota is Spanish for acorn) in the world. Its free-range, heritage pigs freely graze on meadows nestled in a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in a southern Spain. Their diet of acorns, grass, roots and wild herbs produces a ham that melts in the mouth, with a delicate sweetness and hints of acorns and herbs.
Cinco Jotas Holiday Gifts will be available in the United States after November 1, online at www.tienda.com and www.hamlovers.com and at an expanding network of specialty gourmet retailers around the country.
