Ibericus Amsterdam

Un lugar atendido por españoles, ideal para no extrañar tanto escuchar tu idioma (aunque no sea con acento argentino). La cantidad de jamones que hay ahí nunca la vi en mi vida. Me pedí un sánguche de jamón crudo, con un poco de tomate y aceite de oliva. Delicioso. Podría haber comido mil. El precio considero que está bien para la calidad que ofrecen.
También vi gente comprando jamón y los empleados les daban para probar los distintos tipos así los clientes podían hacer una mejor elección.
Sin dudas cuando extrañe comer algo bien rico, volveré a pasar por Ibericus.

Spanien mitten im Amsterdamer Jordaanviertel: wir kommen uns vor wie im Museo de Jamon in Madrid.
Wer Lust auf den Namensgeber dieses Ladens hat, ist bei Iberico total richtig, um die spanische Delikatesse (und nur diese) in allen möglichen Varianten auf unterschiedlichen Sorten Baguette, Croissant oder Stulle zu essen. Unermüdlich steht hier jemand am Messer und zaubert aus den knackigen Baguettes «Pan con Tomate y Jamon».
Natürlich kann auch Schinken (Iberico) pur gekauft werden (ganze Laiber hängen von der Decke) oder direkt vor Ort vertilgt: in der Tiefe des Ladens befindet sich eine kleine Bar mit Getränke-​Ausschank; an wenigen Bistrotischen könnte man stehen. Sitzen Fehlanzeige.
Nutzt man aber wohl eh nur bei schlechtem Wetter, denn in der Haarlammer Straat schlendert man eher von Schaufenster zu Schaufenster.
Die Hausherren sind sämtlich Spanier, reagieren erfreut auf Ansprache in ihrer eigenen Sprache!

I’m a HUGE FAN of this place! I honestly think it’s one of the best places in town for a genuine Jamón Ibérico — hence the name. Jamón, ham, presunto… it doesn’t matter how you call it as long as you reserve a little of your time to come by and taste this awesomeness.
Just sitting there and watching the staff passionately cutting into a piece of jamón will make your day better — well, at least it does that magic for me. They know what they’re doing, they clearly love it, and they’d be more than happy to help you choose the best ham for your taste (maybe it’s chewy and strong, maybe it’s softer… try them all until you find your thing).
The sandwiches are marvellous, and can you believe they’re actually made with a low quality jamón? I couldn’t when I found that out!!! THAT is how incredible they are — if you can take a «low quality» (well, for their high standards) piece of meat and make it remarkable, then you’ll know you hit the jackpot. The baguettes are crunchy and fresh, adding texture and contrasting beautifully with the ham.
Their orange juice? Also good! Can’t say how many times I’ve had a sandwich+juice brunch there with my husband. After trying a sandwich, go over to the counter and order some pieces of your favourite type of jamón to take home. Cheese packs and cheese-​ham, pre packed, combinations are also available.
Plus: the neighbourhood, although very busy, is charming. Pretty close to Centraal Station and definitely worth the visit. Enjoy!

Olé! Let’s go outside to grab the best Spanish ham in town: the jamón Ibérico of Ibericus. Ask one of the trained meat cutters for some slices or do as I often do and buy mini baguettes with ham. I just love it that the bread is rubbed with tomato and drizzled with olive oil. It makes you long for a Spanish summer even more. In Barcelona and surroundings Ibericus has 18 shops. Thanks to entrepreneur Paul Gonzalez the products of the Ibérico pig are here within reach too. Enter Ibericus and meet dozens of cured hams with black hoofs (pata negra). Their prices vary depending on the level of quality, the bellota ones being the most exclusive. Sausages of the Ibérico pig (chorizo, sobrasada) and paté de jamón are in stock also. In the back you can have a drink and get plates of charcuterie and cheese. Let’s hope that the brand new ham croquettes made by Holtkamp and Ibericus will soon be on the menu too. Untill then you have to go the renowned patissier for your Spanish croquette kick.

This was a treat to find! Want to take a trip to Spain but don’t want to pay for it? Just come here for a taste of the wonderful country to keep you going. This sandwich shop/​butcher/​restaurant has the real Spanish pig legs and they have such a great variety that you are welcome to try.
We sat down and enjoyed Meal #3 which is made for 2 people to share. A great spread of meats, some cheese and break with olive oil and tomato, along with 2 glasses of wine, and a good-​sized salad with more ham and some beautiful greens. What an amazing deal!
Service was pretty good, but one lady was taking care of everything who was seated so it was a little hectic. But she was very nice. The people behind the counter were all smiling and seemed to really enjoy being there. My favorite part of the visit was a small child watching the carver was handed a piece of ham to try. The man was just so patient and it was the cutest thing!
We will be back to try more ham! As I said, there is plenty to choose from with many price-​points. If you want to impress someone with meat, take them some of this ham

Ibericus is, without a doubt, one of my favorite places in Amsterdam! Oh, how I love this place! All the different kinds of cured meats and those little baguette sandwiches are absolutely fabulous. I live in the States but grew up (in part) in Geneva and this is the kind of food I was used to eating on a regular basis as a kid. I didn’t realize just how much I’ve missed being able to go to a charcuterie like Ibericus. I don’t think many people in the US know what a charcuterie is, and what a crying shame that is. They don’t know what they’re missing!
I’m back in the States now and man, do I miss Ibericus…

Second visit here. Really like the ham. This time around the guy wasn’t busy and took the time to give us samples and told us all about the hams and how it is eaten properly. Cool experience.

Well, First of all, you do not expect to find a place like this in Amsterdam. I am from Madrid and the first time I saw this place, I completely dismissed it. A friend if mine suggested to go there, and It was once I ate there that I realized how wrong I was. Simple but effective and very high quality food. Price is comparable to similar sites in Spain. Also, you can buy to take away. The Staff is very friendly also. They do not serve beer :(

My first 5 stars in Amsterdam. They know what they want to offer you… The best Iberican ham in Amsterdam. You can buy ham (obvious) but you can also get delicious sandwiches with different kinds of breads. Go go go

What a selection! Super. Very knowledgeable as well. Good red wines to go with the meats. The bred with tomatoes and oil could have some more flavoring. Nice ‘pit’ stop for a snack

If your a true meat eater then you should come here. I picked up dutchman a lovely sandwich from here. He loved every bit of it! Do I eat pork or beef? Hell to the no… but I don’t hate on those who do.

Here at Ibericus the ham sandwiches are transcendental — and for only 3 or 4 euros they are way, way beyond a bargain. Eat here as often as you can and then forsake all other ham sandwiches until you can return. If you love food you will never forget your first bite!

It;s definitely worth making a trip to go to Ibericus! The meat melts in your mouth

Died and went to pig heaven

Wow! Feels like you’re in Spain

heaven

TOP! Das Beste, was Amsterdam kulinarisch bietet! Ich ergöze mich schon von Weitem an dem betörenden Duft, der um den shop herumschwebt. Dann die Tür öffnen und — man steht in einem Laden, in dem Iberico-​Schweine-​Beine in Holzgestelle eingespannt sich in beste Form präsentieren. Die Auswahl ist groß, probieren ist erlaubt. Angeboten werden kleine bis große belegte Brötchen. Der Clou: Die Brötchen werden mit Tomate massiert und mit Olivenöl beträufelt. Ein Gaumenschmaus! Ach was ein Gaumenexplosionsfestival :-)
Amsterdam bietet in der City nicht viel außer Futtern, Kiffen, Trinken. Ein Besuch ist die Stadt wert, der nächste ist aber erst in mehreren Jahren notwendig. Naja, außer der Iberico-​Laden: Da würde ich gerne täglich hin !
