"160 ASTA Paprika" refers to a grade of paprika based on the ASTA (American Spice Trade Association) color scale. The ASTA color value is a measure of the red color intensity of paprika and other ground chili products.
A value of 160 ASTA indicates a relatively high color intensity, suggesting that the paprika is of good quality with a vibrant red hue. This grading system is often used by spice traders and food manufacturers to ensure consistency and quality in their products.
