Decaf Vanilla in bulk available for wholesale. Adagio's Decaf Vanilla Black combines the pure, sugary-spicy flavor of vanilla with decaf black tea. Soothing, sweet and very 'beany' vanilla fragrance (like warm sugar cookies made with fresh vanilla beans). Very well-blended and pleasant astringency in the finish.
A gentle, natural decaffeination process retains the delicate shape and flavor of the tea leaves. Our decaf teas are decaffeinated using the superior carbon dioxide (CO2) process, which retains the most flavor and antioxidants.
This tea contains trace amounts of caffeine | Steep at 212° for 3 minutes.

Vanilla pods are the fruit of vanilla orchids. Before they can be used, however, they must first go through an extensive four-step curing process. The four steps are killing, which stops vegetative growth; sweating, which helps bring out the vanilla's aroma and flavor; drying, which prevents rot and seals aroma; and conditioning, which matures the aroma. Pods are then graded according to length, physical quality, and moisture content. Whole, plump pods with a nice sheen and high moisture content are used for culinary purposes, while "cuts," or pieces trimmed from larger pods, are used for extracts and perfumes.
