"Hello, I ordered extract grade Uganda Gold beans years ago and was able to make 4L of extract from it. It took years to finish because as they matured, the taste got a loooot better and more potent. I would reduce the required vanilla in a recipe in half due so as not to overpower other flavors - it became that potent. Anyway, just something I am happy to share. I want to order [more] . . . ."

I've been thinking about this order for a bit and have also been thinking about how lucky I feel to have found you from the very beginning of this whole endeavor I'm on. When people tell me about other suppliers of beans or proffer suggestions on how I should source mine, I never even consider buying beans from anywhere else. The quality of your product and service are second to none. I just really appreciate how you run things. . . . You're awesome,"

"Just wanted to take a min to let you know that both varieties of vanilla bean we got, the Ugandan and Tahitian, are absolutely phenomenal! Unlike anything I've ever smelled or tasted before. The Ugandan added really beautiful notes to a Tanzanian Dark Oat-Milk Cherry chocolate we did. And the Tahitian I used in a White Vanilla Chocolate with a thin layer of 75% Peruvian Chocolate shaved over the back of the bar. The Tahitian Vanilla really shines in this one. Incredible.

"Will definitely be ordering more. . . .
"Thanks!"

Rob Hess, Founder & Owner of Go! Ice Cream in Ypsilanti, MI writes:
“Thanks for having great products! . . . . I use your beans in my Three Bean Vanilla ice cream which features beans from Madagascar, Uganda and Tahiti. The different qualities of the bean from the various regions create a really rounded and complex vanilla ice cream! It's one of the more expensive ice creams I make, but it's worth it to taste the intricacies of a truly great vanilla! I also use it as a way to educate folks about fair-trade practices in the vanilla world and why they matter so much.
Thanks again!”

"I wanted to let you know that I am very happy with my purchase. I'm usually skeptical about buying vanilla beans because most of the beans I have ordered from other places were very expensive, dried out looking, & didn't smell like vanilla at all.

"I received my order today and I just wanted to let you know that I am once again blown away by the premium quality of your vanilla beans, they are simply stunning! I’m embarrassed to admit that I have purchased vanilla beans from a well-known supplier here . . . [name omitted] on a couple of occasions as a way to support my local economy and also to save money on shipping costs, and, without fail, I’ve always ended up feeling underwhelmed, disappointed and outright annoyed for being sold anemic, shriveled up, flavorless old beans! Your beans, however, are always so plump, fragrant, pliable and moist; they put all others to shame! I’m so impressed with the outstanding quality and service that I receive from your company that I will happily pay more in shipping costs just so I can be assured I’ll be receiving quality vanilla! I promise I will not stray again, you can consider me a happy and loyal customer!
Thanking you sincerely,

"I got my order of Extraction Grade 1 Bourbon vanilla beans through my aunt from New York. The beans are still moist, considering she shipped it from NY to the Philippines. I just made them into vanilla extract and my entire house smells sooo good. I love the quality of your beans. They are very different (and cheaper, too) from the ones that are available here. The scent is powerful. I snipped half an inch off the tip of one bean and placed it in my sugar container. The sugar was able to absorb the flavor with that little piece."

"I did receive my order and I really appreciate your time and follow-up. You are truly amazing to work with, I will spread the word. I am making vanilla as part of a basket for Christmas gifts and your website will be included. Thanks again for all of your help."
- Lou

"Thanks for the great vanilla! We are returning customers - we bought a pound a couple of years or so ago of the Uganda Gold. Great! I am interested in buying a couple more pounds and dividing it up in 5 beans or so for a holiday fund raiser.

"Peace - you have the best products!!!!"
- JM

"I picked up my vanilla today and the pure smell of it is almost overwhelming. I look forward to using all of it. There are going to definitely be others who want some I can tell you now. This stuff is fantastic. I am delighted to have it. Thanks!"
- Raymond

"I want to express my gratitude and respect for a succesful delivery of the vanilla beans i have ordered , the aroma is wonderful. Thank you very much."
- Victor

"The (Uganda Gold) vanilla beans arrived on Wednesday. Beautiful. The aroma came from the box at 4 feet away before opening. Thank you!"
- Barbara - Ashland, OR

"My order arrived yesterday and I just wanted to say thanks for the great service and prompt delivery. Lovely, beautiful beans arrived quicker than I expected and frankly, I can't wait to start playing around with them. I appreciate your willingness to handle out of country purchases and special delivery needs. Thanks again!"
- Ted - South Korea

"I wrote you last fall in regard to making my own vanilla extract. I made the first batch as Christmas gifts with huge success. All recipients were delighted. My wife has informed me that she will no longer be buying vanilla extract, from now on I am to make it. Thanks again for all your help and assistance. It was a huge success!"
- Nathan - Sparks, NV

"Just got [my vanilla beans] today. My mailbox never ever smelled that good! Neither has my mail - you put the perfume samples in magazines to shame. The smell was so intoxicating, I had to try one and it was rich and intense. My living room smells divine! Can't wait to make some vanilla, some baked goods ad some vanilla sugar, possibly some ice cream too. Thank you!"
- Stefanie

"Couldn't be happier, nor those I work with. After four hours our office was pleasantly fragrant. The two women there were amazed at the quality and price, our marine gunny asked for a couple for his cigar humidor, the RSO took one and shaved bits into his morning oatmeal. Me, I just wanted it for extract... now cooking in a bottle of vodka - the company is happy. Thanks again."
- Mark

"I've been busy making loads of gifts with the vanilla - vanilla oils, vanilla vinegar, vanilla brown sugar, extract....... and later today vanilla salt! Why have I gone with your company - honesty. I have read various sections on your website that talk about how some of the beans are not so pretty (for making the extracts) but then you go on to explain you get more for less and still the quality is good . . . . I buy, or shall I say now - used to buy - vanilla from a grocery shop. You won't believe the difference and it works out even more expensive for me to continue at the grocery shop compared with having you send it to me here [to The Netherlands]. I'm in the process of starting a food blog and I'll definitely be showcasing some of my Amadeus vanilla - with joy. . . .Thanks and you have one satisfied customer.
- Ozoz - The Netherlands

"I am going to give vanilla sugar as gifts for Christmas. . . I just used my homemade vanilla extract this weekend. The cookies literally disappeared before my eyes! I'd say the extract turned out ok?!"
- Lynda

"I have received my vanilla beans and so far, my home made extracts look gorgeous (all three liters of them) and my husband is noting that I smell perennially of vanilla now :). My mom would be very happy to receive some of the extract grade beans for Christmas. Thank you for the great service and prompt shipping.

"Maraming salamat (Thank you very much in Filipino)."
- Rona

"Hello Sir, just received those beans. Incredible aroma real nice, thanks. I went online because I can't get vanilla beans; except those horrible grocery store vanilla beans in the spice isle. Nice to experience good customer service for a change too."
- Daniel

"I want to tell you that I am impressed with your service. I got emails and calls to confirm all the details about the order, shipping address, etc. are correct no matter how big or small the order is. Keep up the good work and I am really glad I found your website."
- Raymund

"Thanks so much for the prompt, professional service. Can't wait to throw these puppies in some vodka, and then sit back and wait to enjoy. Really appreciate all of your help, answers, and service. Hope to place an order again soon. They smell so good!"
- Kelly

"The only problem I had [with my order] was the UPS driver. [He] is a friend, [and] did not want to take it off the truck because it smelled so good. I have already used it for my Biscotti and plan on using some tonight for a batch of Vanilla ice cream. I am very happy with it. What a difference from the beans you buy in the store. I will be buying more from you and have also given your website address to some friends."
- Kim - Post Falls, ID

"Thank you very much for the GREAT service. I received the beans and started making vanilla last night. Next month I will be starting on ten bottles for Christmas presents. I'll be buying the beans from you because of your great customer service."
- Dave - Sacramento, CA

"I had gotten some of your Organic Vanilla Extract some time ago, the quart we got then, has done us well. . . It is a fantastic product, . . . and we really love it."
- Fred

"I bake as a hobby and your site came highly recommended by a chocolatier I met in Oregon. When I went to the Amadeus website, the variety of vanilla products and of course, the pricing, were all very appealing. I am very impressed with your excellent customer service in responding to my inquiry, in a time when so many companies just don't seem to care that much about maintaining customer satisfaction.

"I received my shipment on Friday and couldn't believe how fresh and wonderfully aromatic the beans are. I plan to make some vanilla ice cream within the next few days and I can hardly wait to taste the finished product."
- Marilyn

"I have started lots of extract from my first batch of beans and was really impressed by the quality of the beans not to mention the price...I look forward to doing business with you. You've found another lifetime customer. I imagine that happens frequently!!"
- Art - Austin, TX

"I am absolutely fascinated with the level of service that I have gotten. Thank you so very much. This type of service will keep me coming back."
- Cheryl

"Just wanted to thank you so much for all the help you've given me for this (small) transaction. The beans arrived unscathed (so very well packed!) today. What a treat to the olfactories! I can't wait to make the vanilla extract. I'm sure it will be finer than any of those available commercially."
- Debra

"This is ‘the’ place to buy Uganda Planifolia vanilla beans. Their sampler pack is a great way to start your extract collection."

"I just wanted you to know how great the vanilla beans I bought from you are. I made 3 quarts of vanilla extract with them and cannot wait until they age to use them....I plan on making 25 half pint bottles for each of my friends for Christmas and will be ordering more beans."
- Judy

"I am so pleased with the Uganda Gold that I am ordering some for a friend in honor of her birthday. Being from the hot climate of Houston, of course, I have made Vanilla ice cream from "scratch" using the Uganda Gold Beans (and lots of them) and I am constantly besieged by friends and family to make more!!"
- John - Houston, TX

"I just received my order from you in which I'm very pleased so far. Your prices are the best I've seen on the internet and plan on looking to you first in the future."
- James - St. Joseph, MI

"It is reassuring and refreshing to meet a company president who obviously cares so much about his product, and to take the time to discuss it with a new customer, especially one who placed a very tiny order....I will not hesitate to recommend your firm to friends and family who need vanilla products."
- Kristina - San Francisco, CA

"I received my vanilla beans the other day and you have indeed made me a very happy camper.  They are beautiful and filled the room with vanilla.  I cannot begin to tell you what a pleasure it has been to order from your company.  I have never received such great service.  I will always order my beans from you and will tell my friends."
- Vanessa - Tillamook, OR
