Very bad communication from this seller. Without any information during the order taking, the site validates your purchase although the delivery is suspended during the holidays. Result more than 3 weeks of delay during which your relay point or yourself may be absent because of holidays.

All our spice bags are closed by hand, but are not sealed. This is to allow you to reseal them after use.

The products are not too bad but often out of stock...on the other hand, the customer service sucks. I was never informed of the delivery of the product at the relay point, I had to contact the customer service who never answered me by email.

Contacted by phone, I was informed that my package was there...it's still incredible not to be informed of the good reception of its packages...

The products are quality, well packaged and shipped quickly. I'm taking off 2 stars because the delivery is marked as offered, but as soon as you log in to finalize the order, fees appear...

Over the last 12 months we have not applied any price increase and the prices of vanilla have even decreased. We do not understand your comment very well.

I'm very pleased with the service and the quality of the product. I'm very pleased with the service and the quality of the product. The lack of communication was the problem caf I had to send a message to know why my order did not arrive (approx 10 days) while the delivery charges are to my taste a little expensive.

we send emails at each step of the order's progress.
Once the package is shipped, the carrier is responsible for communicating on the tracking of packages.
Perhaps you had badly informed your email address.

Fast shipping. I ordered 3 different kinds of vanilla (kely, prima and papouasie). The size and freshness is decent, but I find it severely lacking in flavor. I expected much better.

I did not receive my first package because of the post office but Sambavanilla was very reactive to send me back a package that I received well this time, the vanilla looks top quite fragrant. I thank you Sambavanilla, I would surely do another order with you.

The kelly pods have a size of 13 cm. If you want longer pods, we can offer you the gourmet pods or the Papua XL pods.

One of the few sites to mention the vanillin content, vanilla as described .... ...but, the taste is not there. I'm used to making ice cream and custards with vanilla beans, but I didn't find the smell and taste I usually had. I'm going to double the doses, and it will become a luxury dessert, too bad.

For a better infusion of the pods, we recommend that you let them soak in the milk for at least 24 hours in the refrigerator before starting your preparations.

I thought the pod would be larger however it was well filled and had a lot of flavor. Next time I will take the higher quality.

Disappointed that the vanilla does not come from Reunion Island. It comes from Madagascar. ...less good for my taste. Less fleshy pods than the ones I had brought from Reunion. Fast shipping but too expensive for the quality.

Answer from Sambavanilla
We thought it was sufficiently clear that our vanilla comes from Madagascar.
We take note of your comment without entering into the debate of whether vanilla from Reunion is better than vanilla from Madagascar.
As for the shipping costs, they are calculated according to the weight of the packages and not the quality of the products.
