These are the best. Perfect for home made vanilla and many other delicious creations. I re-purchased these to be used in making vanilla sugar. I have also used in creating flavored butters and I have my own vanilla bean paste which is great added in a wide variety of dishes. These vanilla beans are so flavorful and they smell great. I have used whole or split open and scraped out the deliciousness depending on my intended use. These are fresh and have a great texture. Making your own products is so much better than store-bought when using these premium vanilla beans.

First time buying vanilla beans, so I am not entirely sure what to expect, but these seemed perfect for my homemade vanilla extract. I got a 12 pack of Amber Bottles and had enough beans to fill all. There was not 26 beans in the package I received, there was 29- a nice surprise! They were moist, and smelled delicious! They aren't huge, though accurate size in description. Paring knife for scale in image.

Muy buena calidad de vaina

Business ship to Australia, The beans were juicy and thick. Beans had the most amazing smell coming out of the packing box! Will be purchasing again in future.

I finally decided that it was time to make my own vanilla extract. I was no longer comfortable paying what the grocery store was charging. So, I bought a bottle of my husband’s favorite ‘cheap’ whiskey, added half the package of beans to it, recapped the bottle and stuck it in the back of my cabinet. After 8 weeks, I pulled it out to take a look. The color of the liquid had significantly changed and the smell was amazing! What I Loved: Amazing fragrance: The instant you break the seal on the package you are hit with the sweet buttery vanilla aroma. Moist & Pliable pods: The beans are soft and packed with caviar – exactly what you want when making extract. Balance of quality vs. value: Organic, non-GMO packaging, plump beans – perfect for anyone serious about real vanilla. I used it in some pancake batter at the eight-week mark and it was just as good as the store bought. I decided to leave the beans in the bottle and just see how much better it can get. This means that for less than $40 usd I have just under 60 ounces if vanilla extract that will continue to get better over time. And I still have about 12 beans to use for other purposes. (Be sure to appropriately seal and store any left overs.) This means it cost me under $0.70 usd per ounce from organic Madagascar beans and whiskey from a manufacturer I trust. The cheapest I can currently find as of today for similar is $4.50 usd per ounce. Things to remember: Vanilla Beans are from a plant. No two beans are alike. The bean size and plumpness will vary. Be attentive to the grade of beans you purchase. These are Grade B beans, some will be slim or even split – That is normal. Takeaways: Whether you are crafting homemade extract, making an infusion, vanilla sugar, or enhancing the flavor of a dish, these beans are stellar! Plus, they are organic, vacuum-sealed for freshness and – dare I say – add a little luxe to your pantry without breaking the bank. If you are looking for authentic, quality beans, these deliver in spades.
