Vanille Cribbiana Che'Sib'Ik

The Vanilla Orchid cribbiana was the variety widely used by the ancient Mayans of Guatemala. However, with the fall of the ancient civilization came the disappearance of this extraordinary vanilla for over 400 years until a vanilla enthusiast, Ruben Dario Fontana Ramirez, established the world's first Maya Vanilla plantation, using wild varieties growing on his land. After seven years of patient development, Maya Vanilla is now ready to meet the world's best tables in a global premiere.
