Vanilla history and legacy
Vanilla originates from Mexico, where the Aztecs used it centuries before Europeans discovered it. In the 16th century, vanilla was brought to Europe, quickly becoming a favorite among the aristocracy. Later, cultivation spread to other regions, and Madagascar has since become the world’s leading producer of Bourbon vanilla. Its unique climate and growing conditions give the beans their unparalleled flavor and aroma, making them highly prized worldwide.
Storage
Keep the beans in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The glass jar preserves moisture and aroma, but always reseal tightly after opening. When stored properly, vanilla beans stay fresh and ready to use for a long time.
