We are Tania and Gaetano, two expats who moved our families to Spain for new adventures. We both moved here from the US, Tania (originally from the UK) in 2020, with her husband and daughter from Northern Virginia, and Gaetano in 2023 with his two daughters from Los Angeles. We all met in Valencia and got along incredibly well, but while we cracked each other up discussing our fun times adjusting to Spain, there were quite a few eye-rolls from our girls (tweens and teenagers anyone!). In an effort to give our daughters a little break we thought what the heck, let’s share our experiences with unsuspecting strangers instead. This podcast came to life and we hope you enjoy the pitfalls and joys of our experiences - we all have!

In this episode of Ah, Spain: Poco a Poco, we slice into the world of Jamón, Spain’s most iconic cured meat. We explore the traditions, breeds, and flavors that make jamón a national treasure. We discuss the differences between Jamón Serrano and Jamón Ibérico, uncovering how breed, diet, and geography influence taste and texture. We also explain the various classifications of Jamón Ibérica - Bellota, Cebo de Campo, and Cebo- and what those labels mean for your palate and wallet. Whether you're a seasoned Jamón aficionado or new to this delicacy, join us as we unravel the savory secrets behind Spain's beloved ham.
