03 / Same orchid family. Different expression.
Taste side by side, not in isolation.
The fastest way to understand origin is to use the same recipe and change only the vanilla.

A clean base makes differences in creaminess, perfume and finish easy to spot.

Simple syrup
Useful for comparing how each origin behaves in drinks and fruit.
