The Tahitensis Vanilla: Heading to Papua New Guinea

When it comes to vanilla, variety is the order of the day. Let's discover this time the tahitensis vanilla, a product with a subtle taste that you will quickly adopt. This vanilla is produced in Tahiti or Papua New Guinea. Vanilla tahitensis is a species of orchid that has thin stems and leaves thinner than other plants of this type. It is a hybrid between vanilla planifolia and vanilla odorata. It differs from the Bourbon vanilla by its roundness and its specific notes. Take the time to smell and taste it, you will find notes of caramel, anise, licorice, spices, musk and leather.

A magnificent refining for a superior quality vanilla

Very appreciated by great chefs, this refined vanilla tahitensis +10cm XS has a higher moisture content than other vanillas. Its atypical taste also seduces pastry chefs who wish to sublimate their preparations. The vanilla that I present here has benefited from a long maturing process to bring out all its flavors. For months, in a wooden trunk, it has blossomed to offer you the best. An auditor regularly opened the trunks to ensure that no pods were moldy. If this is the case, the offending pod is removed immediately to avoid damaging the others. The objective: to obtain an exceptional product as always.
