This vanilla has a subtle flavor and brings out the flavor of the chocolate without being too strong. I love it!

It's delicious! Makes everything that requires vanilla better!

I thought the more expensive version would be comparable to the real Mexican version, but no it is not. Also you cannot return this item. The taste is absolutely awful and it hardly has any vanilla taste at all. In the photo I have the real Mexican version in a clear glass bottle, compared to this in a brown plastic bottle. This liquid is significantly lighter which means they slacked off on how many beans they used.

This vanilla compliments our dessert recipes well, especially the cookies. We normally purchase this vanilla when traveling to Cozumel, but needed it before our next trip and Amazon came through for my daughter the Bakeologist. Item arrived as described and promptly. Regrettably, it came at too high of a price, but we needed it.

My son brought me a bottle of this vanilla home from a Mexican vacation. It was wonderful and I was so excited to find out that I could buy the exact same product from Amazon.

Good flavor, but I still prefer McCormick's. I just add more of it. I tried about five types of Mexican vanilla. They all had completely different flavors. This one was my favorite. I didn't see the point of even using the others and might give them away. This one is different and it will be fun experimenting with it in various recipes, using half of this and half of the regular kind. IT has a more exotic flavor that regular, which, to me is blissfully innocent in its taste. Especially in in custards. I thought this would be just more intensely "vanilla." Instead it adds a more tropical or exotic touch which I was not expecting. The other brands were not as intense as this and the flavors were sort of indescribably "awkward." If I make something with this, I might think, "Oooh, that's an interesting vanilla! " If I ate things made with the others, I'd think, "Hmmn... what favlor IS this?" Not anything like cardamom (which I really like . . . it is SO fragrant and delicate while also being exotic). Not floral. Not pungent. Not spicy or minty. Maybe the word "aromatic," might fit. I think "vanilla" fits more into the mildly floral and slightly sweet category. Now I see why some companies make "bourbon vanilla." I have yet to try that. The bourbon probably turns the vanilla flavor from soft and innocent into strong and bold.(I now must try that and revise the review if I"m wrong.) I thought this might do that without tasting of bourbon. It doesn't. It's a different breed of cat, which I was not expecting.

Villa Vanilla is the absolute best Vanilla I have ever bought in my life!I bought Madagascar Vanilla and it was filled with either alcohol or glycerin and tasted terrible! But Villa Vanilla Mexican Vanilla has such a sweet nutty Deep Vanilla flavor! It is the best, most amazing vanilla I have ever tried in my life and I am 57 years old and have done a lot of baking and tried so many different kinds of vanilla.Villa Vanilla is the Absolute Best!Thankyou Kim Cutrano

Just look at the color compared to the picture provide in the product description. We bought this brand (Villa Vainilla) while in Mexico (32 ounce size) and it was some of the best vanilla we ever had. We used it up in a couple of months. So we ordered the 64 ounce size this time and look at the picture it's caramel colored and it smells nothing like vanilla. Total Scam!!
