The holm oaks and oaks of our  dehesas  provide the firewood used to dry the peppers, in this contributing their part to the unique aroma and smoky flavour of  Pimentón  de La Vera.

Trasierra-Tierras de Granadilla has the honour of producing and processing the peppers used in DOP Pimentón de la Vera. Traditional plantations of “pimiento molío”, or peppers for paprika, can be found in Zarza de Granadilla, Aldeanueva del Camino, and La Granja, areas that are part of this quality designation thanks to their irrigated farmland.

Smoked paprika is the perfect complement to any recipe, adding a unique smoky flavour and a deep red colour to your dishes.

Are you more of a spicy, sweet or sweet-and-sour person?
