Best learning experience

WaiShan_C, Jul 2024
I have learnt a lot through this experience class, and I know more about the Jamon pairing with wine. Cintia run the class and she has taught a lot and make sure I understand the process and details. It is very interesting to join this class!

More like an educational tasting

Andrea_L, Apr 2024
Being titled a “masterclass,” we would have liked more audio-visual presentation (such as cutting demonstrations) or other more hands-on experiences. However, there was definitely lots of Jamon to taste and our instructor was very informative and friendly. It was a very good & interesting tasting. Also plenty of cava.

Jamon Masterclass da non perdere!

Angela_R, Oct 2023
Questa Masterclass di jamon è stata una scoperta meravigliosa. Abbiamo imparato tantissimo, provato tutti i tipi di jamon esistenti in Spagna e assaggiato vari vini che combinano con le varie tipologie di jamon. Xavi e tutto il personale sono simpaticissimi e molto attenti, davvero una chicca a 2 passi dalla Sagrada Familia.
