Our Nyanza Vanilla is grown in the hills around Nyanza (aka Lake Victoria) in Tanzania, where the altitude, rich soil and temperate climate produce an especially rich, sweet vanilla. This Grade A Nyanza Vanilla comes in a bamboo tube or plastic container with an inner pouch or pouches that keep the vanilla pods fresh. Cut the pods open and scrape the seeds into custards, ice cream or other rich desserts (use the empty pods for vanilla sugar!). Or infuse them with alcohol of your choice for homemade extract. Also available as vanilla powder and vanilla extract kits .

These vanilla beans are simply the best for any serious baker. They are so plump and moist, full of fragrant seeds that scrape out easily. The rich, sweet notes from these Nyanza beans make such a difference in my cheesecakes and ice creams compared to other brands. Even the empty pods made a fantastic vanilla sugar.
The rich, sweet flavor of these beans really takes my desserts to the next level.
This vanilla has such a beautiful, sweet fragrance. Made a batch of crème brûlée, and the flavor was just incredible, truly elevated the dessert. The plastic container kept them perfectly fresh.
The quality of these Nyanza vanilla beans is consistently excellent. They always arrive fresh and plump, packed securely to maintain their potent aroma. Ideal for infusing into spirits for homemade vanilla extract or scraping into desserts.
The pods weren't as plump as others I've bought, making it harder to scrape the seeds.
