Description

Trader Joe's Organic Pure Bourbon Vanilla Extract is made from Vanilla planifolia beans — the variety historically grown on Île Bourbon, now known as Réunion Island. The label explains it directly: Bourbon vanilla gets its name from that island, and the cold-extraction process is used specifically to protect the delicate nuance of intense vanilla.

The formula is minimal: water, organic ethyl alcohol, and organic vanilla bean extractives. No artificial flavors, no imitation vanilla, no corn syrup. The extract carries USDA Organic certification (verified by Quality Assurance International) and Kosher Pareve certification. The 4 fl oz (118mL) amber glass bottle is a standard baking size, sufficient for dozens of batches of cookies, cakes, or custards.

This is the same bottle sold in Trader Joe's stores — sourced directly and delivered to your door by HIOOL GOODS.
