Hello, During my last order, I received a bag where all the vanilla pods were moldy. I reported it, but no response since. I am a bit disappointed not to have had a response from you. I am considering not placing new orders with you.

Hello Martine,
On the December order, it is clearly stated on the package to "take the pods out of the sachet and put them in a base of alcohol". It was about fresh vanilla from the last harvest and it is essential to follow this advice to preserve them.
Thank you for your understanding,
Best regards,
David

I unfortunately have to give these 2 stars, nothing to say about the site for the perfect order, however I never received my package, it was in transit through France to arrive in Belgium to be sent back to the sender without passing by my place... When you are eagerly waiting for your products and they do not arrive, it is not normal.

Hello Nicolas, We conduct competitive monitoring every week. We are not here to sell low-end products at low prices. At the same time, you compare wholesale formats on sale during promotions at -80% from last year on certain short dates and 25g formats... You could also highlight the many price drops compared to your last two orders. They are more numerous than our increases! Finally, I work 7 days a week to ensure my customers benefit from a tailored service like this response 26 minutes after your review. I do not count the gifts, the offers with free shipping that you benefited from, etc. Just one question: Why did you order again and then break sugar on our back? Best regards, David.

I bought red vanilla on sale and I think I know why it was cheaper: it was not very fresh, probably from last year's harvest and has been in a vacuum envelope since (much less good preservation than in rum). It breaks easily, and has little powder and therefore little taste even when infused for a long time. That said, at this price, it's understandable. On my next order, I will check the harvest date from the country in question and will order just after. I will leave a more favorable review if this future attempt is successful. The other spices are good, but be careful with the toxic Tonka bean quite quickly, it deserves to be specified!!

Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Hello Jean, This is not a harvest issue as it comes from the last harvest. Red vanilla is a drier vanilla with a higher vanillin content per kg. That is why perfumers, flavorists, and the industry only buy this quality from us. The quality/price ratio is simply ridiculous. For the same size, the pods have as many seeds as in a wetter vanilla. Only the moisture content changes on this criterion. I understand your concern regarding the tonka bean and its potential toxicity. Allow me to explain the situation in detail to reassure you. The tonka bean, also known as tonka bean, originates from South America and has been used for centuries in cooking and baking for its unique and intoxicating aroma. However, it is true that the tonka bean contains a substance called coumarin, which can be toxic in high doses. Coumarin is naturally found in many foods and plants, including cinnamon, celery, and certain herbs. It can be harmful to the liver when consumed in excessive amounts over a long period. However, it is important to note that the toxicity of coumarin depends on the dose ingested and the frequency of consumption. In the case of the tonka bean, the amount of coumarin present is relatively low and is generally used in small quantities to flavor culinary preparations. Most recipes recommend using a small portion of grated or infused tonka bean to achieve its distinctive aroma. When used responsibly and moderately, the tonka bean does not pose significant health risks. In general, a small amount of tonka bean is sufficient to flavor an entire preparation. It is also worth noting that some food regulations, depending on the countries, may limit or regulate the use of tonka bean due to its coumarin content. In summary, yes, the tonka bean contains coumarin, which can be toxic in high doses. However, when the tonka bean is used in moderation, according to recommendations and suggested quantities in recipes, health risks are minimal. It is always advisable to consult a healthcare professional or culinary expert if you have specific concerns or additional questions about using tonka bean. We hope to have alleviated your concerns and remain at your disposal for any further information. The David Vanilla team.

Not all pods are equal, some are really too thin and too dry. The price is correct compared to the quality.

Disappointing after-sales service. No discussion possible following a delivery problem! Order delivered for them but where? The postman marked it as delivered but he made a mistake with the address!! I had to search for my package myself! Yes it was delivered but elsewhere! You need to change service providers! But your customers are not responsible for YOUR delivery choices. So a lost customer... But maybe you can afford it.

Overall quite good. 2nd order received quickly without any problems. Quality peppers. Vanilla tea good. Vanilla overall quite good. If you have dried black cherries, I am interested. But a small downside on the promotional lot of 100 Bourbon pods.. The quality/price ratio is satisfactory but a few pods (6/7) were much less beautiful than the others.

still no vacuum sealing of the vanilla bags. Disappointment from my last order.
Translated reviews
Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Hello, Why put the pods under vacuum? We do not highlight it on our sheets and do not wish to do so. You bought red vanilla and came back to us because the pods were dry and crooked. We replied that it was indeed the characteristics of this vanilla with a high vanillin content. Giving a rating of 3/5 when the delivery was FREE via the promotional operation and with the service (preparation, SMS tracking, customer service questions, ...) that we offer for an unrelated reason not claimed or stated in our sheet is off-topic. Some of our competitors offer beautiful swollen pods in water and vacuum-sealed, feel free to test. Have a good week, David

Hello, When vanilla pods offer vanillin contents close to 2%, the vanilla nose is clear. Beyond the vanilla notes, the nose is cocoa, buttery, creamy. Just read the reviews from our other customers to understand the rare quality of what I offer. Out of more than 1860 reviews, our rating is 4.9/5. Thank you for no longer ordering from us. Fair winds, David

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

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.
