PNG beans (pods) are $19.95/lb -- and I've seen them for $15/kilo in bulk purchase. You do get what you pay for. Anyway, has anyone ever heard anything about Costa Rican Vanilla beans?? The website I left: http://vanillaexport.com/store/index.php is the only site I found. They claim to sell American Vanilla?? If you know anything about Costa Rica Vanilla resources or comments, please let me know. I am going there soon and would like to visit a farm to see the process, thanks Lance ps. any other up-to-date vanilla info would be great too, like your experience with specific online retailers as noted in this bbs some time ago. <blockquote>I haven't considered beans from Costa Rica Lance- very interesting. Are you familiar with the food site <a href="http://forums.egullet.org/index.php?" rel="nofollow">eGullet</a>? That would be a great forum to join and pose these questions to! Regarding up to date feedback on vanilla bean companies- I top post the most current information / posts, which is viewable from <a href="http://www.browniepointsblog.com/" rel="nofollow">the main page</a>. The <a href="http://www.browniepointsblog.com/2006/11/21/time-for-vanilla-beans-again/" rel="nofollow">most recent vanilla bean entry</a> is regarding my buying beans from the same vendor mentioned in this post you are commenting on. thanks for commenting -- McAuliflower</blockquote> Hello, been a while since anyone has talked about Vanilla Beans — Prices are at the lowest in years due to global glut caused by more farmers starting in 2000/01.

She has tried eBay, but says the price is good but the quality is horrible. The "Tahitian" vanilla beans you buy off eBay are from Papua New Guinea, which are basically the weeds of Vanilla Beans. After trying many online Vanilla Bean shops, she has concluded hands down that http://www.beanilla.com has the best prices and the best quality beans.

Their vanillas, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Cloves and Ginger are excellent!! also their unique brand and packaging. But from all of that, even I just a small buyer but they have respect to me, good service and always updated me the market situation at origin either on prices or products.

However check this web site www.tripper.com. and ask me anything about the vanilla or sweet and spices.(price quality, origin, quality assurance) I would be to share the info and help you in any posible way.
