Vanilla (Vanilla Planifolia)
Vanilla planifolia is indigenous to Mexico, where it is pollinated by native
humming birds; however when transplanted to other parts of the tropical world,
the orchid blooms are pollinated by hand. This handling, along with the
extensive time taken for drying and processing, makes vanilla expensive.
Vanilla is presently grown in quantity in Madagascar, Tahiti, Indonesia, Mexico
and Mauritius.
We have sourced from New Guinea the very best vanilla we can find - 18.5 cm
long, plump, pliable and juicy, dark chocolate brown/ black in colour and with
an intense vanilla aroma.
The beans are sold in 250gm, 500gm or 1kg packs locally, and 9.3kg packs
suitable for International Express Courier -
