Why buy downgraded vanilla beans?

Downgraded vanilla is our in-house term for vanilla beans that don't meet the quality standards to be sold as premium vanilla beans. These pods may present aesthetic defects such as stains, completely split, cracks, non-regular sizes, uneven colors or be broken. Very often, they are dry beans.

These characteristics make them ideal for macerating in alcohol. However, the vanillin content (main vanilla notes) will be much lower than on premium quality beans.

In short, although downgraded vanilla beans are not considered as premium vanilla beans due to their aesthetic imperfections, they can offer very interesting results for macerations in alcohol. Their aromatic potential is very interesting and they can therefore be used to create arranged rums, vanilla extracts or homemade vanilla syrups with an excellent quality/price ratio, in fact IMBATTABLE!

By buying
declassified vanilla beans:

- You buy vanilla beans at a ridiculously low price, allowing you to have a quality/price ratio defying all competition.

- You add value to harvests from several origins to be destocked, i.e. Papua New Guinea, Uganda or Madagascar.

- You enable us toinvest in complete harvests with our partners in order to simplify their harvest and thus add value to their entire annual vanilla crop.

- You should be aware that these vanilla beans are very small, totally split, broken, dry with a low vanillin content , but that for the creation of homemade vanilla extract, they fulfill their mission perfectly.

Elles sont moins belles car déclassées. ça ne me gène pas car ce qui m'intéressait, c'était d'avoir des gousses parfumées et riches en grains. Ce qui est parfaitement le cas. le prix est plus qu'abordable! J'ai suivi les recommandations concernant la conservation (dans l'alcool) et les autres recommandations pour ne pas avoir de perte (la gousse usagée dans le sucre).
