Ibérico gifts in Aix-en-Provence: cutting method and format
Choosing an Ibérico gift in Aix-en-Provence starts with a precise question: do you want hand carving or a machine-cut knife-style presentation? Compare the 80 g 959 Bellota 100% Ibérico shoulder ham, hand carved, with the 80 g Altanza Bellota 100% Ibérico ham plate, machine cut with a knife-style effect. Choose using the full product descriptions.
Read the cutting method before judging the photo
The 959 shoulder ham is identified as hand carved. On the Altanza plate, the knife-style effect is produced by machine. The look of the slices does not replace that information. If the recipient specifically wants hand carving, keep that requirement when choosing. Each photograph shows a reference; it does not by itself certify a particular curing period or protected origin.
Price relates to the whole product
Both references are Bellota 100% Ibérico and contain 80 g net, but the cut and brand also differ: 959 foreleg shoulder ham versus Altanza hind-leg ham. A price difference cannot therefore be attributed only to the slicing method. Open both pages for current price and availability. Choose either reference; this selection is not a bundled gift set.
Make the food gift personal
The tourism office lists food markets at place Richelme and places Comtales. In a city with food-shopping options, a personal gift can start by asking which Ibérico product the recipient enjoys. Choose the Spanish product here and buy any other extras separately. No market partnership or Provençal certification of these products is being offered.
Confirm the recipient before sending
For a gift in Aix-en-Provence, verify the address, postcode and person receiving the parcel, especially at accommodation. Check that they can follow storage directions and review ingredients and allergens. Read what each presentation includes and ask Paco if a date is important. Preparation in Barcelona and transport are separate stages.
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.
