— A Treasured Heritage —

Born in SAVA, the heart of Madagascar's vanilla country, Vilya Green draws on more than 50 years of family history.

This heritage drives our standards: selecting every bean with rigour and passion..

A great vanilla carries within it a terroir, a story and a set of values.

Our Promise

Vilya Green was born in Sambava, in the heart of SAVA, the region that grows most of Madagascar's vanilla. In our workshop, we cure green vanilla bought as close to the growers as possible, and we select ready-cured vanilla from trusted collectors.

Whatever its origin, every bean goes through our workshop: sorting, moisture and appearance checks, conditioning where needed, and packing. Each lot is given a number that follows it all the way to shipment.

The Origin

All our vanilla comes from SAVA, on the north-east coast of Madagascar.
We buy it green in the villages through trusted partners, or ready-cured from collectors we have selected.
Every purchase is recorded, and each lot is given a number that follows it to the carton.

The Craft

Blanching, sweating, slow sun-drying, conditioning in trunks: curing vanilla takes months of patience.
Our curers carry on techniques handed down for decades, and our sorters grade every bean by hand for length, suppleness and appearance.

The Standard

Whether cured by us or by a collector, every bean is re-checked on arrival at our workshop.
The moisture and appearance of each lot are verified, samples are tested in a laboratory, and our curing follows written procedures based on HACCP principles.
