LA CHINATA
The name "La Chinata" comes from the name of the village (Malpartida de Plasencia) where the founder of the company, Florentino Oliva, was born.
"La Vera" paprika is the product resulting from the grinding of red peppers of the varieties Ocales, Jaranda, Jariza, Jeromín, and Bola. It is cultivated and elaborated in the region of La Vera, province of Cáceres, Spain. La Vera paprika is a product with a smoky flavour and aroma due to the smoke drying process of the peppers.
There are three types of paprika from La Vera:
* Sweet: made with the varieties Bola and Jaranda.
* Bittersweet: made with the Jaranda and Jariza varieties.

"What makes our Pimentón de la Vera so special is smoking"
"For two weeks, our peppers are gently smoked over oak wood and dried in the process," says Carlos Olivo in an exclusive interview for Colono on the "Pimentón de la Vera" from "La Chinata"and the smoked olive oil from “Finca La Barca”. It is the same procedure that monks used half a millennium ago in the famous monastery of Yuste, where Charles V spent his old age. "This not only gives the paprika its unique aroma, but also preserves the carotenes for the intense red color."
