The Jamonarium Family
We are the second generation of ham experts and lovers of Iberian ham. We started more than 50 years ago selling ham from a small market stall. Now, we are one of the leading ham and gourmet shops in Europe.
The best thing about it? That we remain a small family firmly committed to quality and good service, from person to person. There are no multinationals or big companies here, it's just us who make Jamonarium day after day.

More than 50 years selling ham in Barcelona - History
Our beginnings date back to the 1950s. We started in the world of charcuterie working in different markets in Barcelona, such as the Boqueria Market on the Ramblas and the Philip II Market.
In 1988, the shop Pernil181 was opened in Passeig Sant Joan 181 in Barcelona. Since then, many customers and, above all, many hams have passed through his doors.
After many years and many hams, in 2011, the Jamonarium brand was created along with the online shop. At the beginning only hams and shoulders were sold, but soon after the catalogue was extended to wines, charcuterie, cheeses, gourmet preserves, seafood, etc.
The ham experts in Europe - Experience
We are the reference shop in Europe for Iberian Bellota and Serrano ham because of our experience and the trust that our customers place in us year after year.
Buying ham is an act of faith. There are many similar labels, but each ham or shoulder is different and you have to trust that whoever selects it knows what they are doing, and does it well.
At Jamonarium we are known for telling you the truth; if it is a little tender, we will tell you so, but if it is dry or has a little more fat, we will also tell you so. All our products are certified and we select them one by one so that the quality is the best for each type of product. Whether in our shop in Barcelona or in our online shop, we only sell quality hams and gourmet products. That is what we base our trust on.
Jamonarium, the benchmark in quality ham - Brand
The Jamonarium brand was born with us and has evolved over the years. It now gives its name to hams and shoulders of all types: Iberian and Serrano, Acorn-fed and Cebo, 100% Pata negra and 50% Iberian. All of them elaborated with the best procedures on the market and cured slowly, the way good things are done.
Our brand is certified and registered, thus offering a guarantee of quality to our customers. Our brand is only distributed by us, as we believe that this ensures the maximum quality of our hams and shoulders.
We only sell hams and shoulders of our own brand, it is a matter of trust.
