Production & Sourcing

Vanilla is a type of orchid plant that is native to Mexico, but is now grown in several countries around the world, including Madagascar, Indonesia, and Tahiti. The production of vanilla involves a labor-intensive process that requires a lot of attention and care. The vanilla orchid flowers only bloom for a short period of time, usually about one day, and need to be hand-pollinated in order to produce the vanilla beans.

After harvesting, vanilla undergoes a meticulous washing process to remove any dirt and impurities. Following this, the vanilla beans are typically subjected to a curing process, which involves several stages: killing, sweating, drying, and conditioning. The killing stage usually involves blanching the beans in hot water, which stops their growth and initiates the enzymatic reactions necessary for flavor development.

Next, during the sweating stage, the beans are kept in a humid environment to encourage the enzymatic reactions that produce vanillin, the compound responsible for vanilla's characteristic aroma and flavor. The beans are then air-dried or sun-dried, ensuring they retain their flavor and aromatic properties. Once dried, the vanilla beans undergo a conditioning phase, where they are stored in closed containers for several months to allow their flavor to mature and develop fully.

After the curing process, the vanilla beans can be further processed by grinding into a fine powder or packaged in whole bean form. This dried vanilla or vanilla powder is then carefully packaged to prevent moisture absorption and maintain freshness, ensuring that the vanilla retains its quality, flavor, and aromatic properties from harvest to table.

In terms of sourcing, Madagascar is the largest producer of vanilla, accounting for around 80% of the world's vanilla supply. Indonesia and Tahiti also produce smaller amounts of vanilla. Vanilla is also grown in smaller quantities in other countries like Mexico, India, and Uganda.
