Brindisa

An excellent value bellota ham which is made from Iberico pigs that have fattened up on acorns on the dehesa of Extremadura and are then cured in Guijuelo, Salamanca for 3 years. The ham has a sweet and nutty aroma with an excellent balance between the savoury and nutty elements and a long, complex finish. Pro or Premium? You decide. This set includes either a professional level wooden effect plastic ham stand or the more expensive, premium beechwood and stainless steel stand. Both kits also include a carving knife and a QR to a ham carving tutorial. Find out more about Spanish Ham and how to carve at our Ham School.

Valencian citrus, from orchards dedicated to biodiversity. Made in small batches in the UK. Unique! This marmalade is part of a Brindisa project exploring small-batch, high-quality foods that celebrate the connection between the Iberian Peninsula and the UK. At its heart is the Todolí Citrus Foundation, founded by Vicente Todolí to preserve his family’s citrus-growing heritage in Palmera, on the Mediterranean coast near Valencia. The orchard houses nearly 500 citrus varieties, and focuses on flavour over commercial traits. We discovered their extraordinary fruit through Shrub in London and, after testing a few varietals, chose the Bouquet de Flores bitter orange for its delicate sharpness, bright tang, and beautiful titian colour. Working with England Preserves in Bermondsey, we created this vibrant marmalade. The peel candies into fine slivers, while the flesh becomes a golden, jelly-like preserve with a flavour reminiscent of lemon curd—elegant, fragrant, and full of character. Made in very small batches with limited fruit, this marmalade is available exclusively through our shops and website.

Caspe is a rare olive, indigenous to Aragón. Only 100 hectares of the olives are cultivated and, until quite recently, it was on the verge of extinction as it was not considered a commercially profitable variety.  This green olive paste is very aromatic and has an intense bitter flavour with a hint of fresh fennel.  Use it to add a deep, fragrant olive flavour to sauces, dressings and marinades.  

A really excellent value stand, offering all the benefits of one three times the price. Find out more about Spanish Ham and how to carve at our Ham School.
