Exception vanillas

With a very high vanillin content, frosted Bourbon vanilla is renowned for its captivating aroma and delicate flavor. It results from a complex process requiring optimal ripeness at harvest, careful preparation, and proper storage. During the refining process, excess vanillin crystallizes on the bean, forming small vanillin crystals. It is used just like traditional vanilla beans but offers amore intense aroma to elevate your culinary creations. This vanilla, grown in the Indian Ocean region, is best preserved in a glass tube, stored in a dry place, away from light and air, to maintain its subtle flavor.
