were also FREE. This is drier vanilla intended for macerations, arranged rums, and syrups. The weight of a pod does not determine its quality at all. You weigh as a professional or individual a water content. At our level, in the importation of vanilla, after years in the industry, here are the most important points: - Vanillin content (main molecule for purely vanilla notes) - Associated aromatic amplitude On this batch: Main Notes: Vanilla, Red Fruits (Raspberries, Currants), Forest Fruits (Blackberries, Blueberries) Heart Notes: Slightly woody, Very candied. - Harvest period - Lot aging, compliance with the specifications specific to each importer (here, long traditional aging as in the past). - Nutrients from the soil from which the pods come, indigenous terroir, type of cultivation (shade, agroforestry, intensive...) - Final result in the creations of our chef and individual clients. Finally, the vanilla that the industry buys to create vanilla extract is only split or unsplit vanilla extraction. Like us, it focuses on the quality of the batch and not on the visual. Today, 90% of imports in the agri-food sector remain vanilla extraction for the quality of its aromatic contents (though dry but much more intense). Best regards, The David Vanille team

The vanilla pieces are not particularly tasty, they are very hard. I tried to chew a piece because I like it, but it's tough. Pepper ok, ginger ok, mild curry... not so mild after all.

I received my order well, products always packaged in sealed individual bags but, unlike my previous orders, these are not resealable and I find that very unfortunate because I have to transfer everything into boxes with the loss of spices that this entails... I am not sure I will continue to buy on this site, despite the choice and quality of the products due to the packaging. Best regards

Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Hello, Thank you very much for your feedback and your appreciation of the quality of our products and the choice we offer.

Quality products at very reasonable prices, however, a big downside on the packaging... I ordered 200g of several products and each time I received 10 individual bags of 20g... having at least 100g bags would help limit plastic use!

It was written that if I subscribed to the newsletter, delivery would be free, whereas in reality I still paid for it.

Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Hello,
Indeed, we no longer deliver to Switzerland due to the high cost of shipping and exorbitant customs fees. Our border customers have their orders delivered to neighboring countries.
Delivery is FREE at pickup points for subscribers to the newsletter from the countries highlighted on the site (homepage, product page, cart page), it is difficult to do better.
Thank you for your understanding.

Hello,
We explain to our customers in the thank you notes we send how to store vanilla.
All our explanations can be found here: https://www.davidvanille.com/fr/content/19-comment-conserver-vos-gousses-de-vanille
You just need to take your vanilla pods out of the airtight pouches upon receipt to avoid any storage issues. Any problem related to poor storage on your part cannot be attributed to the quality of the vanilla pods www.DavidVanille.com

Hello,
We sincerely thank you for your positive feedback regarding the quality of our teas, infusions, and spices. We understand your concern about the packaging and appreciate your suggestion for more suitable packaging. We are always listening to our customers to improve our practices and do our part for nature protection. We will start by making 50g bags for all our new teas to keep this possibility of discovery tests. The range should develop this year.
Thank you again for your support.

Generally, I love your products, but I was very surprised by the composition of the 'coconut curry'......not very natural
Translated reviews
Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Hello Charles, Thank you for your loyalty and for your feedback regarding our Coconut Curry. I understand your concern about its composition. Allow me to provide you with some clarifications on the ingredients that concern you: The spices and aromatic plants are the heart of our business and come from carefully selected sources. The skimmed milk powder is a 100% natural ingredient that brings the characteristic creaminess of coconut milk. Modified starch is simply starch transformed by physical processes, without the addition of chemicals. Xanthan gum (E415) is a natural thickener, produced by fermenting sugar with a bacterium. Citric acid (E330) is naturally present in citrus fruits and other fruits. Our approach at David Vanille has always been to offer authentic spice blends while ensuring optimal preservation and use. The additives present in our Coconut Curry are used in minimal quantities and are all of natural origin or derived from natural products. Do not hesitate to discover our other spice blends or to contact me directly if you would like alternatives without these components. Looking forward to continuing to take you on a flavor journey, David

No issues with the products or the order... however, GLS needs to be stopped, this carrier is a disaster... and can we still call it a carrier.... 3 orders placed with you, 2 were delivered to the wrong pickup point which forced me to travel 15km while my pickup point is 500 meters from my home.... too bad, I hope this will evolve....

Response from DavidVanille.com – Spice Hunter
Hello Christophe,
I completely understand your frustration regarding the delivery issues with GLS. We sincerely apologize for these repeated inconveniences, especially the deliveries to the wrong pickup point that forced you to travel 15 km instead of the initially planned 500 meters.
Good news: following numerous similar feedback from our customers, we have decided to test a new carrier starting early April. This change should allow for more reliable deliveries within 48 to 72 hours. Our priority is to ensure a serious delivery service that meets the quality of our products.
We thank you for your patience and loyalty despite these inconveniences. Your satisfaction is essential to us, and we are doing everything we can to constantly improve our service.
Have a great day,
Best regards,
