He's based in Granada, and it is a....granada (what Mark said). If you look up the coats of armour of the province and also of the city, you'll see it featured.

edit: for instance: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archivo:Escudo_de_la_provincia_de_Granada_(España).svg
(the tilde is messing up the link, but if you copy-paste the whole thing instead of clicking on it, it will work)
