This is a one-time special buy that we were able to secure with our suppliers of vanilla beans from India. It is a very limited offering and will stock out. It's a great opportunity to try Indian vanilla beans if you have not yet done so. This bean is named after the city of Palani Hills, which is a beautiful Southern city on the South Western side of India. These beans are the same beans as our current Malabar India beans. We named them differently to distinguish the promotional inventory from the regularly-priced inventory, though the vanilla bean in the same.
VanillaPura's Palani India Vanilla Beans are of the highest quality. They are plump, dark, rich in oils and have a bold traditional vanilla aroma and taste when used in your extracts. Virtually any spirit will do when making vanilla extracts with this exquisite vanilla bean, with a special emphasis on dark rum, as these beans have a naturally "rummy" taste and aroma reminiscent of molasses.

When you first open a pouch of Palani India vanilla beans, your nose will be met with traditional vanilla notes that are magnified by its earthy richness. This is a powerful vanilla aroma and taste that is sure to add enhanced sweetness to your favorite pastries and desserts. If you are familiar with dark rums, this vanilla bean captures some of the elegance of a fine, aged rum including sweet notes of molasses.
