What we get is over a century of knowledge, passed down through several generations with one goal in mind - to produce a celestial flavor and heavenly aroma with each harvest. Grade A for Baking, Cooking, and Desserts Grade A vanilla beans are superior in flavor, fragrance, and vanillin content. Grade A vanilla beans are harvested right at the peak of ripeness when the tips start to turn yellow. In turn, vanillin content is at it's highest, providing that sweet, heavenly scent that we are all familiar with. They are easy to split to scrape the caviar from inside the bean. This enables the caviar to be added directly to your favorite culinary confection. Desserts Confections Cakes Ethically Sourced for the Benefit of All Micro-farmers have long been taken advantage of by large curing outfits and were often barely able to feed themselves. Fortunately, through technology, global programs, and greater accessibility, this is quickly becoming a thing of the past. Micro-farmers are directly tied to their land. It provides income, a place to call home, and a direct connection to their ancestors and their traditions. They are proud to be landowners, and continue on the tradition of curing vanilla beans that was handed down to them for several generations. Their work is their own, and they are able to reap the benefits from it, and to create a better life for their children so that they may hand down the knowledge and skill.

Organic certification places an undue hardship on small farmers because of the high cost of certification. The reality is that most vanilla beans grown, harvested, and cured by indigenous farmers are done without the use of any unnatural chemicals or additives. **Q: Which method are these beans cured?** A: These vanilla beans are cured in the traditional method. They are cured for 14 days in the sun. At night, they are packed into sweating boxes to reduce moisture. They are then stored in curing boxes for an additional 4 months where they develop fragrance even further, as well as allowing time to convert glucovanillin into vanillin. The result is a superior vanilla bean. **Q: What is the difference between grade a and grade b beans? And why does the seller say these are not suitable for extract?** A: There are many differences in Grade A vs. Grade B vanilla beans. The most notable would be the moisture content. Grade A are at least 30-35% moisture, but do not exceed 38%. Grade B can range from 15-25% moisture content. Grade A is considered to be a versatile bean. It CAN be used for extract. It is IDEAL for uses in baking where the vanilla bean needs to be split and the caviar to be scraped out. Grade B often is difficult or dangerous risking injury where the knife may roll and cut the user, and is not recommended to be split. **Q: Do these come vacuum sealed?** A: Yes there were vacuum sealed. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fresh Vanilla Beans With Amazing Aroma *by T***A on 11 May 2026* These vanilla beans smell incredible and feel fresh, soft, and easy to work with.
