Smoked Paprika from La Vera D.O. (Spicy) 70g

In La Vera, the pepper used to make paprika enjoys a privileged microclimate and so develops naturally; sheltered by the rugged peaks of the Sierra de Gredos mountains, gorges and green meadows through which the Tiétar river flows.

The peppers belong to the “Capsicum annum” family and are from the cerasiforme and piper longum sub-species. They come in three varieties: Sweet, Bittersweet and Hot.

La Vera Paprika is obtained by grinding mature, dried peppers. The peppers are dried using Oakwood, which generates sufficient heat to dehydrate the fruit perfectly and gives La Vera Paprika its three main characteristics: Aroma, Flavour and Balanced Colour.
