Valrhona’s sister brand Norohy belongs to a group of brands collectively known as Valrhona Slection, all of which are committed to ethical gastronomy.

Norohys adventure began in Madagascar, the present-day home of vanilla. Noro and Rohy mean light and connection respectively in Malagasy — a perfect illustration of their mission to create a link between producers and chefs to highlight this exceptional raw ingredient.

Born from a meeting between a vanilla producer and pastry professionals when Trimeta from Madagascar and Valrhona from France connected, a meaningful partnership was formed with a unique goal: to offer the best in our two worlds.

This high-quality black vanilla bursts with floral and sweet aromas with powerful cocoa notes. Its shiny and oily appearance makes it easy to work with. The vanilla flower of Madagascar, the Vanilla Planifolia orchid, is still hand-pollinated using techniques passed down through the ages. These green vanilla beans from eastern Madagascars Maroantsetra and Mananara regions are cultivated by an organic planters association.

After being harvested and selected, the beans are then processed and refined using traditional techniques. It takes over six months for these black non-split vanilla beans to attain all their excellent quality, and they are monitored with the utmost care through every step in the process. Traditional skills are used to sort beans into similarly sized bunches and bind them with raffia.

Norohy sources its organic vanilla directly from committed planters and is involved throughout the processing in order to guarantee fair and sustainable practices and the highest quality beans.

Each bag contains approximately 30 to 35 vanilla beans.

1 whole vanilla bean = 1 tablespoon vanilla extract = 1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste = 1 tablespoon vanilla powder
