Special Summertime Offer - Black Magic 2026

A Mystifying Blend of 5 Vanilla Bean Species — Designed by, Jill

The original release in the "By, Jill" signature collection.

Last year, so many of you asked if we could release Black Magic earlier so you'd have it in time to host your own Halloween extract-making Potions Party with friends.
You asked—we listened.

(Delivering to US homes in September in time for your Halloween Potions Parties)

Some extracts are made. Black Magic is conjured. Since 2016, Jill — co-founder of VanillaPura and co-author of The Art of Extract Making — has crafted hundreds of vanilla extracts in her kitchen, each one a meticulous study in flavor, balance, and complexity. Black Magic is one of her most treasured creations: an impossibly sweet, boldly distinctive blend of five premium vanilla bean species working in perfect harmony.

The exact formula? That remains Jill's secret. What we can tell you is that every pouch is blended to her exact specifications — and the result is an extract experience unlike anything else on the market.

What Makes Black Magic Different

  • 5 premium vanilla bean species in every pouch — blended to Jill's proprietary specifications
  • Grade A quality — pliable, oily beans rich in vanillin and natural flavor compounds
  • Impossibly complex flavor — sweet, bold, and deeply layered in a way no single-origin bean can replicate
  • Exceptional value — experience five premium species at once for a fraction of the cost of buying each separately
  • Packaged in a sealed black resealable pouch — perfect for making Black Magic vanilla sugar or vanilla salt with the oils left in the bag after extraction

Product Details

Vanilla Grade: Grade A (pliable, oily, rich in vanillin)
Vanilla Species: 5 different species, blended to Jill's specifications
Minimum Order: 2oz pouch (larger beans mean 1oz pouches aren't possible — with one of each species, the net weight often exceeds 1oz)
Jill's Spirit Recommendations: Brandy (VSOP), Bourbon, Vodka, Captain Morgan White Rum, Cognac (VSOP or XO)
Expected Delivery: End of September 2026


How to Make Your Black Magic Extract

Use the ratio of 1oz of beans for every 8oz of alcohol. Add the full contents of your pouch to an extract jar, cover with your spirit of choice, and seal. For best results, age up to 1 year in a light spirit (vodka, white rum) or 18 months to 2 years in a dark spirit (bourbon, brandy, cognac) for maximum depth and complexity.
