Papua New Guinea
Grade A Papua New Guinea Vanilla Beans
From £4.90
From the volcanic soils of the South Pacific, Papua New Guinea vanilla is clean, bright and floral. It is Vanilla tahitensis, the same species as Tahitian vanilla, with hints of cherry and star anise, a gentle spice and a smooth finish.
The pods are darker than average, slightly shorter at 12–14cm but broader, with a distinctive taste. On the nose: cherry and oak.
