How it differs from similar foods
Unlike smoked hams, this product is not smoked, which results in a milder, less intense flavor. The addition of honey provides a gentle sweetness that complements the savory pork without being overpowering. Its uncured nature means it does not contain added nitrates or nitrites, distinguishing it from many other cured ham products.
