Vanille verte fraîche
Grassy, faintly like a bean.
The vanilla you know doesn’t exist yet. It gets created right here. The beans go into woven baskets, get dipped into hot water for a few minutes, then straight under blankets to sweat overnight.
That heat shock stops the pod growing and wakes up the enzymes that convert its stored compounds into vanillin. Only then do the vanilla pods start turning dark, glossy and fragrant.
After that it’s months of sun by day, wrapped by night, then conditioning in boxes until the aroma settles.
We bring those beans back to our facility in Fremantle, WA, where everything is manufactured, bottled, packaged and distributed. It’s a pretty special process.🌱
