Bourbon Vanilla for the food Industry

Vanilla from Madagascar is known under the trade name Bourbon vanilla. Its intense and balanced flavour makes it the most popular variety in Europe. Our Bourbon vanilla pods come from the UNESCO Mananara Biosphere Reserve, a traditional vanilla growing region in the north-east of the island.

The cultivation of a vanilla pod is an art. So that vanilla pods can be harvested after nine months of ripening time, each vanilla blossom is pollinated individually by hand. The pods then go through several important processing steps after harvesting to help them develop their characteristic vanilla flavour. The highest levels of care and precision are required from fermentation to gradual sun and shade drying right through to quality control.

Thanks to the elaborate traditional process, many years of experience and our engagement on site, we are able to supply you with vanilla with a unique flavour. Our products correspond to the trend towards vanilla extracts instead of vanilla flavourings.
