25 Split Extract Grade B Madagascar Bourbon Natural Vanilla Beans 5~6" by Vanilla Products USA

Q: Hi - I'm confused what 25 "splits" are. Is each vanilla bean cut in half longways, meaning that really this is 12 1/2 whole vanilla beans? Thanks!

25 whole beans that are partially split lengthwise. I've got mine sitting in 5 cups of vodka right now! Color is coming along nicely after one week.

Q: How many ounces of extract will 1 package of these beans make?

7 OZ. The instructions on the package say to use 1 OZ of beans per CUP of extract. The 10 pack of puny beans I received weighed .8 oz on my food scale in the packaging! This means it's not even enough to do 1 CUP of extract if you follow their directions.

Q: Why is 'bourbon' in the title of this product?

The scientific name for Madagascar vanilla is V. planifolia but it is commonly called Bourbon vanilla because of the region of the Indian Ocean Islands that this vanilla bean comes from. It has nothing to do with bourbon alcohol, if that is what you were wondering.

Q: Are these beans imported from a Fair Trade company?

I believe so but I no longer have the wrapper so I cannot be 100% sure.
