Smoked paprika is a famous variety of Spanish paprika (Pimenton Dulce Ahumado) from the Extremadura region (in the southwestern part of Spain).

Its main characteristics are its typical bright red color, its delicacy and smoky taste.
This paprika variety is produced with the best peppers of the Extremadura region, and for this reason it has a very high Asta quality.
Its delicate taste is also given by the fact that the Spanish paprika is smoked slowly according to the traditional smoking process of the Iberian peninsula, with the natural smoke of precious woods.

ROMA smoked ground sweet paprika has a delicate taste and an smoked aroma and flavor.

These are given by the slow natural smoking of the pepper with selected woods, as required by the Spanish tradition.
The production of Spanish paprika is also scarce (unlike the Hungarian paprika, which is very widespread) and is considered a prized rarity.
To create the smoked paprika, the peppers are in fact subjected to a smoking process with selected woods which can take up to 15 days.
The peppers are then dried and finely stone ground, creating a fine and impalpable powder with an exceptional aroma.
