3. A little pricey

   by cheryl maxson on May 6, 2013

   Looked good, good quality, but kinda of small and pricey.
4. Great product!

   by Jennell Morin on May 6, 2013

   I bought the Tahitian beans to make vanilla extract favors for my upcoming wedding. This was a great product and shipped fast!
5. 19/20 Stars

   by Nicholas van Nordheim on Apr 23, 2013

   I gave my order 19 out of 20 because the beans were a little drier than I expected. I know I ordered the Grade B and inherently they will be more dry, but when I received the package there was air inside that had ballooned the package up and probably caused some minor drying. I believe there was some heat that had come into contact with the package. Overall, I am extremely pleased with your service and look forward to using more vanilla beans from your collection!

13. Extract

    by Sanford Williamson on Feb 14, 2013

    I bought this type of bean to make home-made vanilla extract. I have some "cooking" now. The aroma of these beans are very different and very pleasant.
14. Tahitian (Papua New Guinea) Vanilla Beans (Grade B)

    by Johanna Bontrager on Feb 10, 2013

    They were great! We were expecting about 130 beans we received at least 170! We ordered 2 packages but were able to return one because each package had way more than we expected. We used the beans to make vanilla extract for our wedding favors. They look great and I'm so excited to be able to give out such a quality product! Thanks!
15. Great product

    by Christina Martin on Feb 6, 2013

    This is my 2nd time ordering from Beanilla. I was quite impressed with their customer service my 1st time around and couldn't wait to run out of vanilla beans so I could order more. Thanks for providing a great product at a reasonable price.
16. Exelent

    by Russell Banks on Feb 2, 2013

    This the second time I've orderd from Beanilla. First time was for Grade A beans, they were very plump and moist, better than the last place I ordered from. The Grade B's not as good as Grade A, but they worked better than Grade A for extract because there cheaper. I will be ordering all my beans from Beanilla from now on. I also like that they come vacuum pact.
17. What a find.

    by Amy Tavano on Jan 26, 2013

    After my carefully cared for, years in the making, homemade vanilla extract committed suicide in my kitchen; a quick Internet search led me to you. These "grade B" beans look and smell better than any grocery store bean I have ever purchased. Thanks for saving the day.
18. great!!

    by Jeannine Paul on Jan 4, 2013

    Made vanilla extract with the beans....it smells wonderful... can't wait to use the extract!
19. Great service and product

    by Gregg Stranahan on Dec 28, 2012

    Great service and product.
    Thank you
20. Great experience

    by Amanda Hill on Dec 28, 2012

    Would buy from Beanilla again.
21. Wonderful.

    by Emma Sovich on Dec 28, 2012

    These beans are definitely floral, definitely rich, and most definitely distinct from the bourbon beans. Quick shipping, lots of beans, and quality packaging. These will make for great vanilla extract. Thanks!
22. Very pleased

    by Melissa Talamantes on Dec 26, 2012

    Order these beans to make holiday gifts. They were such a great value. I used them to make vanilla infused sugar. Tastes great and won't break the bank!
23. very pleased with my beans

    by Vicki S Legge on Dec 21, 2012

    Quickly shipped!
24. perfect

    by Kimberly Egbert on Dec 15, 2012

    Bought to make vanilla extract.....waiting for it to be ready....
25. Great for the Price

    by Anastasio Flores on Dec 15, 2012

    Definitely grade b beans and most you have to double or triple up on, but great for extract which is what they're intended for. You do get 75 beans, if not more, but in reality with having to use more per recipe, your batch is really about 25-30 beans worth. Definitely worth it.
26. excellent!

    by Meredith Rubin on Dec 10, 2012

    excellent!
27. Fantastic!

    by Rachel Arwine on Dec 4, 2012

    Even though these beans are advertised as "grade b" they are fantastic! Very moist and plump...perfect for my homemade vanilla extract! Fast shipping too :) thanks beanilla! I will definitely be shopping with you again!
28. Great product

    by Linda Colwell on Dec 4, 2012

    Fast easy service. Product seems wonderful. Have not used much yet.
29. great!

    by sarah rounds on Nov 27, 2012

    I bought these to make extract. They seem to be perfect so far. They came fast were packaged well and I actually got more beans than they said I would! Can't beat bonus beans!
30. Great Beans!

    by Katie Oldakowski on Nov 20, 2012

    The shipping was very fast and it was packaged wonderfully! I am giving these away as Christmas gifts and it is making great Vanilla Extract as I type!
31. Wonderful!

    by Evanne Center on Nov 20, 2012

    The beans were in excellent condition upon arrival. Using these to make home made vanilla extract for the Holidays - can't wait to see how the final product turns out!
32. Good value

    by Suzanne Luke on Nov 20, 2012

    Grade B Tahitian beans smelled great, but they were less supple and thinner beans, thus making it harder to split the beans and remove the "caviar". I think the resulting vanilla will be very good, based on the aroma of the beans and the week-old extract, but I will buy the Grade A beans next time, because it is much easier and less time-consuming to do that. ( my first order was for the grade A bourbon beans).
33. For Vanilla Extract

    by Eric Stiles on Nov 20, 2012

    I am 100% satisfied with the product. The cost of pure vanilla extract is sky high. Compared with paying $8.99 for a 2 oz. bottle at the supermarket, I am making 25 oz for less than $16.00. I will be making future purchases from Beanilla
34. Great

    by Victor Barr on Nov 20, 2012

    very moist and plump beans
35. awesome - thanks!

    by Emily Duke on Nov 13, 2012

    I ordered these to make a case of 4 oz. vanilla extract bottles; really happy with the quality of the beans. Half a pound is about 75 beans (which is plenty for 24 4 oz. bottles) and I would say 15 of the full lot are true grade B - so a great deal for your money if you're not using them to bake.
36. good beans

    by Deborah Abell on Sep 23, 2012

    Beans came in perfect shipping conditions, and are absolutely great for making extract!
37. Great vanilla beans

    by Randall Sower on Sep 19, 2012

    May not be the best Tahitian beans, but really close!

39. Good Beans

    by Francine Johnson on Sep 15, 2012

    I had been wanting to try making vanilla extract for ages. I thought I'd try your beans. It's only been a week (well, 6 days) but so far it looks good.
    
    The only downside is that my research showed that Grade B beans were best because of the lower water content and this is the only Grade B bean you have.
40. Better than Described

    by Veronica Brown on Sep 15, 2012

    I feel like I got a really great value with these. The majority of the beans were large, moist, and plump, not to mention incredibly fragrant. About 1 in 4 were smaller, drier or had cracks as described. I bought a batch of 25 and about 20 will go into making homemade extract. The five plumpest I might just use for baking after all.
41. Perfect for extract

    by Kimberly Kelly on Sep 13, 2012

    Arrived quickly and just as stated... not the perfect bean for baking, but they are working wonderfully for my extract. You can follow our progress here:

    Quick delivery
43. Great beans, fast shipping

    by Gary Jackson on Sep 10, 2012

    ordered these beans for DIY extract. They arrived quickly in great condition. They sliced nicely and the caviar was wonderful to smell. These beans were fresh and delicious.
44. making homemade vanilla extract

    by Neil Swan on Sep 1, 2012

    making homemade vanilla extract as Christmas gifts - the beans were beautiful and fresh and smelled marvelous - won't know flavor until Dec. 1 - have no reason to believe they won't be excellent!
