Unearthing the exceptional

A little exceptional in every bake.

We begin with vanilla from Uganda: long, plump Grade A beans that split clean and scrape full, with enough seeds to streak a custard black. For the cakes and creams you’re known for.

Pick by what’s on the bench: supple pods for custard and pastry, drier beans for the extract jar, powder for dough and hot chocolate.

Carefully chosen origins

Grown on a vine in Uganda. Sealed at the source.

Green vanilla pods ripening on the vine in Uganda
On the vine · Uganda

Grown. Vanilla is an orchid. The pods ripen on the vine for months before anyone picks them.

Cured. Weeks in the sun turn the pods from green to deep brown and draw out the aroma.

Cured vanilla beans bundled in kraft paper for export
Bundled · sealed for export

Sealed. Each batch is bundled, sealed and shipped whole, to our door and then to yours.

The beans prove themselves in your kitchen: the first custard, the first jar of extract. Every listing describes the exact batch it ships from, with its length, aroma and harvest.

How a batch travels

Make your own extract

Five beans. One jar. A little patience.

Split the beans, cover them with vodka, and let the cupboard do the work. Months later you’re pouring vanilla you made yourself, and a labeled bottle of it is a thoughtful gift.

Good to know

Common questions

Short answers to the ones we hear most.

All questions

What does sealed at origin mean?

The producer bags and seals each batch before export. Nothing is opened, blended, or repacked on the way to you.

What is on the ingredients panel?

One line. Vanilla beans. No sugar, starch, or carrier.

How should I store the beans?

An airtight jar at room temperature, out of the light. Skip the refrigerator, which pulls moisture out of the pod.

For the bakes you’re proud to share.

Start with fifteen beans and one crème brûlée. If it earns a place in your kitchen, the pound is there.
