Vanilla Beans - Gourmet Grade (3)

Plump, moist and rich Malaysian Vanilla beans, for the first time introduced to the Western market by Exotica NZ under our sister brand Korunui. 

These Gourmet Grade Vanilla beans from the famous Vanilla Planifolia variety are grown in a small plantation in Malaysia. They are only harvested in small quantities to maintain the highest quality of each batch, before shipping to NZ for preparation and packaging. 

Our Vanilla is grown organically and ethically, gently tended by many loving hands just the way it was supposed to be. No wonder these beans taste so unique with their sweet, rich, smokey, creamy flavour.

Our vanilla beans are certified both overseas and in New Zealand for quality. We're delighted to report a moisture content of 34% (Gourmet range is 30-35%) illustrating the freshness level of the beans. With this in mind, we're confident our Korunui brand of Gourmet Vanilla Beans are superior in quality, and will translate into many many delicious treats!

Each vial contains 3 Gourmet Grade Vanilla Beans for you to enjoy!
