Descriptions

Our Vanilla Beans ( Vanilla planifolia ), known locally as Lavanila, are grown in Madagascar on the northeast coast, an area renowned worldwide for the quality of its vanilla. The pods come from ripe green vanilla beans and are then processed using a traditional, time-honored method that guarantees suppleness, shine, and intense aroma.

The product comes in the form of whole or split pods, black to reddish-brown in color depending on the grade, with a fleshy and oily texture, meeting the requirements of international B2B markets.
