Imported Nielsen Massey Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Extract 4 oz.

Nielsen Massey Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Extract - Finest Quality Vanilla - Their exclusive cold process method extracts the essence from selected vanilla pods, the finest obtainable, producing rich and delicious flavor that is unsurpassed.

The most popular flavor in the world, originated in Mexico. Brought to Europe about 150 by the explorer Cortez, it was first used only in conjunction with cacao beans in a drink called Chocolati. Since 1602 it has been enjoyed as a flavor by itself.

Grown mainly in Madagascar and Indonesia, as well as other minor areas, the vanilla bean, or pod, is the only edible fruit-bearing orchid. Each flower, open only one day a year, must be hand pollinated to produce a pod which requires a labor intensive 3-6 month curing process to develop full flavor. About 5 pounds of harvested pods produces only 1 pound of cured pods.

35% alcohol - Ingredients: Water, Alcohol, Sugar, Vanilla Bean Extractives.
