The vanilla bean has one of the most sophisticated cultivation processes for any spice and requires an artful hand to pollinate each individual flower in order to render vanilla pods for harvesting. A key step in developing the distinct flavor of natural vanilla, the curing process is also a time-intensive, hands-on pursuit. The nuanced flavor and aroma of Virginia Dare’s premium vanilla comes from working with growers who remain dedicated to the traditional harvesting, curing, and extraction process of the fruit pods.
We deploy both analytical tools and human expertise during our proprietary extraction process to retain vanilla’s delicate, natural aromatics and full body, ensuring a consistent, flavorful consumer experience.
