Real vanilla has become quite rare these days. Markets are filling up with cheap imitation vanilla as the climate has greatly affected the growing conditions of true high-quality vanilla. After traveling across Madagascar in search of high quality and affordable vanilla I found it. This vanilla comes from Northern Madagascar where much of the farms have been protected by mountain valleys.
 
This is truly one of the worlds greatest spices, just having it in your spice cabinet is a luxury. Whether you use it in baking, French/Malagasy cuisine or you want to make some of the best vanilla extracts you will ever have, this is the vanilla to get.
