4oz Vanilla Beans Tahitian Grade B for Extract, Cooking and Baking by FITNCLEAN VANILLA| Fresh 5"-7" NON-GMO Natural Raw Whole Pods Create your own recipe flavors and give them a distinct taste and aroma with Tahitian Bulk Vanilla Beans Grade B by FITNCLEAN VANILLA. Considered an extract grade, these Grade B pods are moist and fresh. They have a relatively lower moisture content (25 to 28%) and are shorter than the gourmet grade A. The typical length of each raw vanilla bean is 5" to 7," and they may have blemishes such as splits or scratches. These beans may also have a lower seed density. However, the vanilla pods still feature traditional Tahitian floral aromatic characteristics. This makes them useful for extraction and brewing. Unlike the Madagascar Bourbon species (Vanilla planifolia), Tahitian Vanilla is only a small fraction of the world's natural vanilla production and is deservedly nicknamed "The Queen of Vanilla." Tahitian vanilla beans have a floral taste and fragrance different from the Madagascar Bourbon species. The bean pod is also stouter and plumper and has higher oil and moisture content. These whole vanilla beans are traditionally harvested and cultivated by local farmers using fair trade practices.
