Three ways to buy vanilla
What makes it worth it
Flavour you can smell first
Open the pack and you'll know. Depending on the bean, expect smoky, sweet, creamy, woody or floral notes that carry through into the finished dish.
Plump, supple gourmet beans
Our Grade A beans are soft and oily, with 25–30% moisture, so they split easily and give up their seeds without a fight.
Picked by hand, cured slowly
The beans are picked by hand, then cured over several months. That slow stretch is where vanilla's flavour develops.
Not just for dessert
Use it in custards and cakes, coffee and cocktails, or a savoury sauce. It works just as well in a home kitchen as a professional one.
It starts on the vine
Every vanilla flower is pollinated by hand, and each pod takes months to ripen before curing even begins. Good vanilla can't be hurried, which is why it tastes the way it does.
About Pinisi & CoChoose by what is in the pod
Grade, size, moisture and vanillin: the numbers that tell you how a bean will behave in your kitchen. We publish them so you can compare beans before you buy.
