Our beans are triple inspected throughout the beans journey from Mexico to the United States. First, they are inspected by our farmers who have hundreds of years of wisdom and experience growing these gourmet pods.  The second inspection is before bulk vacuum sealing for transport and to ensure no mold has developed. The final inspection is done at our warehouse moments before packing your shipment. We check the smell, quality, and appearance if any mold has developed a final time. Once all of these are checked, we vacuum seal our vanilla beans in our beautiful custom industrial vacuum pouch to a tight 28 HG vacuum.

    • Traditionally Cured Gourmet Planifolia Vanilla Beans from Most Recent Crop
    • Average Length: Approximately 5 – 6 Inches (13 cm – 16 cm)
    • An excellent choice for creme sauces, ice cream, pastry cream, vanilla sugar, vanilla bean frosting, and homemade vanilla extract
    • Also ideal for recipes using vanilla to support other flavors, like chocolate, caramel, toffee, honey, maple and cinnamon in cookies, brownies, frosting, candies, and cakes.

Storage: Vacuum packed/sealed bag preferred to ensure fresh beans otherwise wrapped in zip lock bag inside an air tight container such as a glass jar. Shelf Life of approximately 2 years if properly vacuum sealed.

1st time buyet

Found Vanilla Bean Kings in a Google search. Website was very descriptive & informative. My daughter & I had been talking about making vanilla. Very happy with our beans from Mexico. Made 1 batch with vodka & 1 with bourbon. Anxious to try it. Have been following the Facebook page and learning so much! Will purchase from Vanilla Bean Kings again.

Best beans on the planet

When your can still smell the vanilla in the air days after opening the bag you know you have quality. As a chef for 20 years this is my new go to for vanilla anything.

Makes Vanilla Extract

Seems to have a stronger effect quicker than the Madagascar beans. The color was a nice brown to show it reacted better.

Unique vanilla ice cream

I used these Mexican beans for a batch of vanilla ice cream and I was pleasantly surprised at the flavor. I didn’t expect there to be such a different flavor from Madagascar beans. It’s hard to describe but enjoyable. All the beans I’ve ordered from this site have been great quality.

Great Beans but

The vanilla beans are fantastic, great smell, finished products when using these beans always turn out spectacular... my only draw back is the packaging... cant reseal once opened so you better plan to use all the beans you bout.

Amazing beans

I ordered 4 oz of these beans and they are so plump, oily, and fragrant. I used them for vanilla paste and the taste is already amazing. I will be ordering more in the future.
