Black Vanilla Single Origin TK Long 17cm+ Split Pods Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla Beans

**TK black vanilla differs from gourmet black vanilla mainly in its moisture content. TK vanilla is suitable for many of the same purposes as gourmet black, and still considered Grade A, but not as visually perfect as gourmet pods.

Vanilla planifolia sourced from our cooperative of smallholder farms in Madagascar's SAVA region, the heartland of Bourbon vanilla cultivation. Our vanilla is ethically grown, single origin, and fully traceable from facility to fokontany (village). Cured using traditional methods perfected over generations. Prized worldwide as the benchmark for vanilla quality and flavor. Each batch lab-tested for vanillin content, moisture, and purity by COFRAC-accredited, ISO 17025 laboratory before export. Phytosanitary certificate included with each package.
