Very good communication. Very nice presentation. Just a bit disappointed by the quality of the vanilla pods which remain quite dry despite having soaked them in rum.

Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Hello Françoise, Thank you for your feedback. Wait a few more days, the pods will rehydrate completely within 15 days. They won't be as big as green vanilla but will have doubled or even tripled in volume. I remain at your disposal at [email protected]. Looking forward to hearing from you, David

2 packages with moldy pods and I am asked to return them. Waste of time and money. Unpleasant and uncooperative customer service.

Hello,
You did not wish to return the packages and did not follow our conservation advice written on the label, our thanks and the site.
If no return, we cannot verify your problem and the batch.

Honestly disappointed with the quality of the pods. Hard but not flexible, I will not order again.

Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Madam,
You purchased downgraded vanilla 20 pods for €9.89.
Did you read the description and title of the product? No.
For Tahitian vanilla, for a pod at 40% humidity, this is impossible.
Best regards,

3rd order, generally very satisfied both with the management of the order/delivery and the quality of the products.
One little star less, during the last order, not completely satisfied with the star anise, many broken

Disappointed with the vanilla pods that arrived moldy in the packaging. The customer service response was to put them in alcohol as soon as we receive them. This response does not satisfy me for several reasons: the pods arrived moldy upon receipt, I even sent a photo. So it is not the fact that I did not put them in alcohol that caused them to mold. I do not consume alcohol and I do not have any at home, I often order vanilla pods that I do not keep in alcohol and yet there is no problem. I give 2 stars because their sugar and spices are good but I will not order pods from them again. They offer very attractive prices on vanilla but I prefer to pay more and have good pods.

On this day 6/03/23, I contacted customer service for a problem with macadamia nuts that are rancid despite a best before date of 31/12/2023.
After 2 emails and the incoherent and absurd responses that followed, I was in communication with a young lady who rejected me and refused to pass me to the manager to find an amicable agreement.
Fallacious arguments blaming the customer of course, and not the company.
I absolutely do not recommend this site because at the slightest problem, they decline all responsibility.

Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Madam,
You purchased the macadamia nuts in July and stored them in your basement at 10°C (according to the explanations in your email). The nuts must be stored in a dry place, away from light and temperature changes.
We do not decline our responsibilities but do not take on when we have not made mistakes.
Incoherent and absurd responses? We took the time to respond very quickly to each of your emails and took the time to listen to your explanations for 25 minutes by phone.
Best regards,
The David Vanilla team

Spice is useless, no pleasant taste or smell... freeze-dried to death
Translated reviews
Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Hello,
The only two products you purchased are not freeze-dried: AOP Espelette pepper and saffron in pistil.
No taste? For us, that's your foolishness.
Fair winds,

Hello,
Since I particularly love wild pepper, I had it tasted... I then referred an acquaintance for his purchase. I thought the referral code was useful but no, ultimately nothing! Moreover, I saw on the site that there is a gift with every shipment!! Aside from the David vanilla magnet (as a gift it's a bit much!) I haven't seen any color. But the pepper is always appreciated!
Translated reviews
Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Hello,
The referral allows the referrer to receive a gift code 5 days after their godchild receives their order.
The magnet is our current gift, it's useful. We can never satisfy everyone; when we offer bags, we can get the same type of feedback.
The simplest thing is to stop the gifts, right?
2/5 when we prepare your order quickly and with great care, it's a shame.
You should try our competition please. Compare the price of the wild pepper you order with each order and the gifts.
If the gift is nicer but the pepper is 50% more expensive, we can do it but we are more reasonable with our selling prices.
Best regards,
David

Impeccable products and customer service!!! Go for it with your eyes closed. 2 orders made and received...TOP! I only gave 4 stars because I find it a shame that there is no free home delivery for orders around €100.

My package arrived torn but nothing was missing from the order. It's not the fault of the merchant site but the carrier. I will order again from David Vanille, without any problem;

Order well received! The box was poorly sealed, the tape was sticking to part of the box. At the moment, I haven't used the products yet and can't give my opinion. But I can say that there were intense smells of spices around this box.

The explanations about the products are detailed and clear, the navigation did not seem complicated to me (mobile navigation), in the dropdown menu, in the category "Spices and Aromatics", possibly add subcategories like "condiments, herbs, and spices" to facilitate the search if you want something specific, it is not necessary to scroll through all the items in the category "Spices and Aromatics", this is a suggestion not a criticism ;-)

After receiving pods with mold on them, I contacted customer service. I was told that it happens and that I just need to clean the pods with a cloth soaked in a little alcohol. So that's what I did, then I stored my pods in a glass tube to prevent this from happening again. Strangely, 3 weeks later my pods are completely moldy as you will see, and no refund is possible because I quote: "if you do not return the pods in their bag we cannot do anything." Who keeps a bag with mold thinking it will be used to get a refund?? No commercial gesture, this is really not normal. I do not recommend.

Hello, You received your order at the beginning of December and did not follow our conservation advice written on the label but also on our thank you notes. Fanny offered you a return but that did not suit you. Our customer service responded very quickly to your requests. We cannot be held responsible for poor conservation. See our advice again here: https://www.davidvanille.com/fr/content/category/3-tout-sur-la-vanille Thank you for your understanding, David Vanille

I received the order very quickly, well-filled vanilla, fatty while it is announced dry. Nice pod but however without taste, I have tried to extract the grains, infuse the pod, blend it into powder, but even using 3 pods, the flavor of the vanilla is only very slightly present. Basically, the pod is well filled but without any flavor or smell. They are starting to frost, as indicated on the site but still no taste. Well, apart from that the almond powder is good and the spices are strong. But I am still dissatisfied with the vanilla pods.
