These are the three main types of Spanish Paprika.

Mild: a brick-red powder made from small, round tomato-shaped peppers, with a smoky aroma and a tangy flavor. This is what we get in the most popular commercial spice brands.

Bittersweet: a deep-red powder ground from dried, elongated peppers. It provides a piquant heat with an acrid edge.

Hot: duller in color, made from various elongated peppers. It adds a sharp heat to dishes and leaves a pleasant burn on the palate.
