How do we combine it?



               In  order  to  appreciate  the  full  flavour  and

               aromas  of  Teruel  ham,  it  is  best  to  taste  it

               alone or with a little bread and a sprinkle of

               Extra Virgen Olive Oil, Red wines, aged or not

               and  slightly  aged  dry  white  wines  with  not

               too much acidity are good accompaniment.

               In any case, the most highly expert recog-

               nise  that  the  best  combination  is  with “fino”

               and “manzanilla”. The finos contribute aromas

               which very well accompany the ham in the

               mouth due to their mildness, their slightly salty

               nuance and their low level of acidity. In ad-

               dition, the bitter touch of the exit of the finos

               combines perfectly with another bitter nuan-

               ce provided by the evolved fats of the ham.

               Beer not only combines excellently with acids,
