The Latin Grammy Award for Best Flamenco Album is an honor presented annually at the Latin Grammy Awards, a ceremony that recognizes excellence and creates a wider awareness of cultural diversity and contributions of Latin recording artists in the United States and internationally.[1]

According to the Latin Grammy Awards category description guide, the award was given, "For vocal or instrumental Flamenco albums containing at least 51% playing time of newly recorded material. For Solo artists, duos or groups."[2] Since the inception of the category, only Spanish performing artists have received the award.

Spanish musician Tomatito and Spanish singer Niña Pastori hold the record of most wins in the category with four wins each, followed by Paco de Lucía with three wins. In 2014, Paco de Lucía won posthumously both this award and Album of the Year with his last album Canción Andaluza, becoming the first flamenco artist and album to do so.
