Brand: FITNCLEAN HERBS AND SPICES

Vanilla planifolia otherwise known as Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla, named after 2 islands in the Indian ocean noted for cultivating the crop. Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla (Vanilla planifolia) is by far the most popular of the 3 cultivated vanilla species - Vanilla planifolia, Vanilla tahitiensis and Vanilla pompona. Vanilla bean pods are graded after they are harvested, conditioned and ready for use. The grading is based on moisture content, length of the pod and lack of dehiscence/wholesomeness of appearance. High moisture content, long, oily and dark seed pods with no splits/dehisces are given the highest grade, A, the Gourmet grade. The Gourmet grade/Prime grade/Grade A, typically has about 30% moisture content, are 5” or longer and 1lb contains between 100 -120 pods. The grade B beans have about 15-25% moisture content, may have some blemishes and 1lb contains about 140-160 bean pods. The conditioned fruit seed pod with the vanilla flavor houses thousands of tiny, black seeds. The pods and the seeds are both useful for culinary purposes.

• MADAGASCAR ORGANIC VANILLA BEANS GRADE A: About 5" long, inviting rich aroma, oily moist fresh, pods densely filled with seeds. We get our beans directly from the source - peasant Malagasy farmers at fair market price. Authentic Madagascar Vanilla Beans
• ORGANIC MADAGASCAR BOURBON VANILLA: NON-GMO, traditional harvest and conditioned for months to enhance the characteristic captivating flavor. The #1 choice of all cultivated vanilla species. The Bourbon (now French Reunion) is an island in the Pacific, just like Madagascar known for curing great aromatic vanilla. It has nothing to do with the alcohol bourbon.
• USES: Ideal for all culinary purposes, baking, brewing, desserts, ice cream, beverages, coffee, and great for extract also.
• VACUUM-SEALED: They are vacuum sealed to maintain the moisture content. Should there be air in the bag it does not mean the pods are denigrated. Note that as part of the curing process they are air ”dried” in the early morning breeze.
• BUY WITH CONFIDENCE, 100% GURANTEED QUALITY: We go the extra mile to offer the best vanilla beans to our customers. If our pods do not meet your expectations, please email us through Amazon and we will resolve all issues.
