Txistorra boasts a rich, savory, and slightly smoky flavor profile with a noticeable paprika kick.
The dominant flavor is derived from the pork, enhanced by the pimentón (smoked paprika) which provides depth, color, and a subtle smoky heat. Garlic and other spices add further complexity, resulting in a robust and satisfying taste. The curing process concentrates these flavors.
