The beans came vacuum sealed and seem to be fresh. They seem full bodied and not dried out at all. I am well satisfied with the quality. I have just immersed them in four 6oz. bottles of Vodka. I believe the ratio that I used will yield about a 1.45 cut. I intend to let them age for at least 1 year or more. I guess I will know the true quality of the beans at that time but from the looks and feel of the beans I expect a good quality extract. This is my third attempt at making vanilla extract. I have my first attempt that has been aging for slightly over 1 year in Bourbon. I bought the beans from a different supplier and they were not as good a quality as these. I hope and believe these beans will do better than my first attempt. I will say my first attempt has produced some of the best tasting Bourbon I have ever had but it is not even close to vanilla extract.
Beautiful beans! Very happy withthem.
I just LOVE the size of these bottles🥰 perfect gor my homemade extracts.
Excellent. As always
I just received these beans today so I haven't sent them swimming yet. Coming from VanillaPura, I know they will be wonderful.
I always enjoy the beans I purchase from VanillaPura! I am dehydrating a batch right now to make vanilla powder so I can use them right away.
I love this kit and the glass bottle is gorgeous. This is my second go round with VanillaPura and I am purely pleased with this project and product.
The scent and the size of the beans is quite inpressive, along with the major plumpiness. The oils are amazing-vanilla sugar is on tap for those bags!
For me this actually smells and tastes like vanilla. My baking always come out great.
I did a double fold using these beans and Bacardi superior and after 18 months, the vanilla is sweet and syrupy with lots of caviar, perfect for that special recipe! I’m pleased to be gifting it to a special friend.
It’s here!!! It arrived very fast for a group buy! It smells AMAZING!!! I can’t wait to bake with it!
Smells amazing. Excited for the end results
