We directly source these high grade, sustainably grown vanilla beans from our partner in Madagascar. A type of orchid originally native to the Yucatán Peninsula, vanilla lives up to the reputation of its more ornamental cousins; finicky and high maintenance, they prefer a tropical environment, and must be carefully hand-pollinated. Contrary to the “plain vanilla” stereotype, natural vanilla is a deeply complex spice, with over 200 distinct flavor components. These gourmet pods from Madagascar have creamy notes of fig, date, chocolate, and oak- perfect for your next baking project or batch of marmalade!
Single Origin Antalaha, Sava Region, Madagascar
Tasting Notes Sweet, Chocolatey, Woody, and Fruity
Pairs Well With Cream, citrus, baked goods
Special Tips One vanilla pod is equal to about 3 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Slit the bean open and scrape out the seeds. Don’t discard the husk, it can still be used to infuse into foods, or to scent sugar.
Botanical Name Vanilla planifolia
