Iberian food gift in Metz: Bellota ham or shoulder
For a small food gift in Metz without giving a whole leg, choose an 80 g net pack of Altanza Bellota 100% Ibérico ham or shoulder, both machine-sliced. The choice is which cut to give, not which ham stand the recipient needs. Open each product page and select the actual reference before arranging delivery.
Same category, different cut
Jamón comes from the hind leg and paleta from the foreleg. Both references share Altanza, Bellota category, 100% Iberian breed, net weight and machine slicing. Shoulder does not mean a lower breed percentage. Sharing a category also cannot promise identical flavour: these are different cuts.
Choose the small gift thoughtfully
Ask whether the recipient prefers ham or shoulder or already knows one. Keeping the labelled packaging helps them reorder the reference later. Do not infer curing months from a photograph or describe the pack as a miniature whole ham. You buy the stated food, with no promised gift box, card or wrapping included.
Pass on useful information
Check the chosen reference's ingredients and allergens before giving food. Keep the dated storage label accessible. If giving both, identify them as two distinct products rather than a preconfigured assortment. An 80 g pack does not establish a full occasion or fixed guest count.
Use the recipient's actual address
The city lists Sablon–Amphithéâtre and Plantières–Queuleu among its neighbourhood councils. These references do not replace a full street address in Metz. Arrange for someone to receive food at the recipient's real address. Check France conditions before promising a date; a neighbourhood name is not our collection point.
Before ordering
You buy from Jamones Paco Heredia in Barcelona. Check availability and France shipping; ask Paco first for an essential date. Follow product details and labels for ingredients, allergens and storage.
