  • Txanton in Makati: More Than Just Jamón and Wine
  • Updated: September 18, 2019

    Food and wine have always been served on high-class dinner tables. Elegant events are usually held at restaurants for people to taste fine wines and luscious specialties, yet places that specialize in wine pairings aren’t that popular in the country.

    Txanton is a jamonería, a place that sells jamón or Spanish ham. Txanton carries one of the best brands in Spain, Enrique Tomas, which offers three kinds of jamón: the Gran Reserva (white pig), the Ibérico Cebo (Iberian pig), and the top-of-the-line Ibérico de Bellota (pure-bred Iberian pig).

     

     The Guijelo, the Huelva, the Valle de los Pedroches, and the Extremadura.

    Popular for serving flavorful hams, one of the must-try items is the Ibérico de Bellota. Txanton carries the best jamón Ibérico from the four regions in Spain allowed to produce jamón Ibérico de Bellota: Guijelo, Huelva, Valle de los Pedroches, and Extremadura.

    But, Txanton is not just an ordinary jamonería. Being owned by wine distributor AWC Philippines has its perks, one of which is having access to the widest variety of wines. They offer some of the finest and rarest wines in the world, all of which can be paired with any of their hams.
