Buyer feedback
What buyers of our partner say
Statements from buyers of PT Supplier Vanilla Indonesia, shown with the partner's permission. They describe the partner's service, not Bumi Vanilla's.
Every other supplier I talked to tried to hard-sell me 50kg minimums of their highest priced grade on day 1. You actually asked me about my product formulation and recommended a smaller trial batch first. That built real trust.
Sarah, Egypt
Thank you for pushing us toward the B grade. We were ready to waste budget buying gourmet grade A pods for liquid extract. Your suggestion saved us almost 25% on raw material costs and the flavor extraction yield was identical.
Thomas, Germany
Vanillin content, length range, and bean count per kg match batch #1 and #2 exactly. That level of repeatability is rare in agricultural products.

Common questions
Before you write to us
What is the minimum order?
One kilogram per product. Lots from 1 kg up to about 100 kg are our main range. Larger lots depend on stock, so ask us.
Can I test a sample before a larger order?
Yes. A 1 kg trial order lets you check moisture, aroma and yield on your own line. Sample price and shipping cost are stated in your quote before you pay.
What is the difference between Grade A and Grade B?
Grade A beans have 25 to 35 % moisture and are 16 to 20 cm long, which suits pastry, ice cream and retail packs. Grade B beans are drier (below 25 %) and shorter (10 to 16 cm) and are made for extraction. If you grind or steep the beans, B can cost less for similar extraction results.
Planifolia or tahitensis?
Planifolia is the classic creamy vanilla. Tahitensis is generally described as more floral and fruity. Tell us what you make and we will suggest one, and a small sample of each is an easy way to decide.
