Alberto taught us a lot about his craft in a way that was very engaging and entertaining. He provided a lot to taste (including delicious wine) and we didn’t even feel a need to go to dinner afterward. This unique activity lets you support a local business while learning about an important part of Madrid culture. Highly recommend!

Alberto, apart being charming, not only knows a lot about Jamón Ibérico but loves it.
It is, not only a very pleasant experience but you learn a lot.

Alberto is an awesome wealth of knowledge about all things jamon! He was so great at connecting with the whole group and getting across the history of jamon, and helping build appreciation for the art they do. Would definitely recommend and would come back for more
