Vanilla from Ecuador
Amazonian Vanilla (Vanilla odorata)
Our Amazonian vanilla is native to Ecuador.
It is grown in so-called chakras (forest gardens), which preserve the biodiversity of the Amazon rainforest as much as possible and are managed by local Indigenous Kichwa families.
Health properties
Effects of vanilla
An aroma that transforms your ritual
AMAZONIAN VANILLA brings real vanilla to your cup, breakfast or homemade snacks. Its aroma smells sweet, even without added sweetener. Pure vanilla does not provide the caffeine kick of Guayusa tea; it offers an intense moment of enjoyment instead.
Whole vanilla, not just a single note
Vanilla has a complex aroma profile that goes beyond a single aromatic compound. Its character is shaped by its origin and processing. With our powder, you use ground vanilla as a spice – finely dispersed, it works well in hot drinks and foods.
A little goes a long way
Start with a small pinch and taste. In Guayusa, vanilla complements the leafy note; in porridge, it adds a rounded aroma. The powder is a spice and does not dissolve completely like sugar; fine particles are part of the ground ingredient.
Recipes and ideas
Preparation
- 1. Measure your vanilla
Start with a small amount and add more vanilla to taste.
- 2. Add vanilla to any Guayusa
Stir the vanilla powder into any GUYA Guayusa variety. It can stay in the tea and be enjoyed with your drink.
- 3. Cook & bake
Add vanilla to porridge, desserts, cakes or biscuits. Simply mix it into your dish or batter.

Ein Einmaliges Aroma, und man braucht nur sehr wenig, um einen intensiven Vanillegeschmack zu haben. Wirklich ein tolles, natürliches Produkt, was seinen Preis wert ist. Und die Natur im Regenwald schütze ich damit auch noch!
M
Extrem lecker.
Ich mische es mit dem Pure/Dark Tee für einen noch besseren Geschmack.
Danke :)

Ich bin einfach so begeistert von diesem Vanillepulver dass man so vielseitig verwenden kann, vielen Dank an Guya für die wundervollen Produkte

Egal, ob in leckerem Naturjoghurt oder zusammen mit GUYA Dark oder Pure, einfach lecker vanillig und sehr sparsam. Zusammen mit dem GUYA Amazonian Cinnamon und einem Schuss Hafermilch im Tee, äußerst lecker.
Mit Naturjoghurt habe ich es auch probiert. Eine kleine Menge reichte für ein natürliches Vanille Geschmackserlebnis.

Perfekt für Müsli, Milchreis und Co.!

Hervorragend zum aromatisieren. Man kann auch sehr gut Milch verwenden und anschließend tollen Pudding kochen oder auch für Milchhaltige Getränke verwenden. Die Vanille hat einen angenehmen und runden geschmack.
