Collection: Vanilla Beans from Uganda – Gourmet Vanilla Planifolia

If you appreciate classic Bourbon vanilla, prepare for a new, intense experience. Our collection of Ugandan vanilla beans is for connoisseurs seeking depth, strength, and unparalleled richness of aroma. Derived from the same noble species as Madagascar vanilla ( Vanilla planifolia ), the Ugandan variety, thanks to its unique climate and soil conditions, develops a more powerful and distinctive flavor profile, dominated by notes of dark chocolate and caramel.

For Professionals: Confectionery Shops, Ice Cream Parlors and Restaurants

Discover an ingredient that will give your products a unique character. Thanks to its intensity, Ugandan vanilla is an ideal choice for professional gastronomy. Its strong, chocolatey aroma is indelible when combined with other ingredients, making it indispensable in the production of premium ice creams, thick pastry creams, ganaches, and complex desserts. Unlike the more subtle Madagascar vanilla, the Ugandan version brings a powerful, earthy depth that perfectly enhances the flavors of chocolate and coffee. Moreover, thanks to two harvest seasons in Uganda, we offer greater supply stability, which is crucial for production planning.
