While wandering along Cava Baja, I came across Alma de Ibérico at No. 41. This shop sells some very fine jamón, the kind I like to get and take back to my little hotel and enjoy in the comfort and peace of a tranquil setting. Out of courtesy to the main with the knife, I didn't snap any photos of him at work, but did get one of the shop and the various things on offer. Here's the link to my blog:
