Another unique and rare vanilla specie, the Costa-Rica Vanilla Tsy Taitra, a hybrid of the wild pompona (resistant to fusarium fungus) and the Mexican planifolia (rich in vanillin), is an exceptional vanilla grown in the forests and harvested after nine months of maturity.
 
Very distinctive from Madagascar pompona hybrid, the rare and ambitious Costa Rican Tsy Taitra vanilla gives more seeds than a classic planifolia vanilla and offer exquise aromas of candied cherries, marzipan, caramel and cocoa balanced by subtle florales notes, reminding a little bit of the Tahitensis aromas and is as perfect for milk-based preparations, creams and sauces. Chefs will surely love its powerful flavours and appreciate its abondance of seeds, making it a vanilla of first choice for gourmet and gastronome.
