Half a pound of Grade A Bourbon beans. Serious vanilla for serious kitchens.

This is the bag for people who never want to ration vanilla again — roughly 50–60 gourmet-grade Madagascar beans, moist, oily, and heavy with seeds. At $85 for 8 oz, the per-ounce price drops sharply from smaller packs, making this the smart buy for avid bakers, cottage food businesses, and anyone making vanilla a signature.

Why Grade A: top-tier moisture and suppleness, graded for aroma and curing quality. Every bean splits clean and scrapes full.

Perfect for: batch ice cream, wedding and holiday baking, vanilla sugar and extract gifting, café syrups, and recipe development.

Pro tip: store airtight, away from light — Grade A beans stay supple for months.

Gourmet quality at a working-kitchen price.
