FLIA 2023: "Dutch premium quality vanilla", Koppert Cress B.V., Netherlands is nominated
An exclusive assortment of Dutch premium vanilla of the Planifolia variety, a type of orchid that only forms pods after three years.
This vanilla is comparable to a semi-dried muscatel grape: it is not yet a sultana, but actually much more. In principle, it is grown in exactly the same way as the black variety, but the fact that it is harvested much later means that the taste is different.
