Se dice que México es el lugar de nacimiento de la vainilla. En los tiempos modernos, la mayoría de las vainas de vainilla disponibles en la actualidad provienen de Madagascar, Papúa Nueva Guinea, Indonesia, Uganda, Comoras y otras regiones productoras de vainilla. Los frijoles en sí provienen de una enredadera de vainilla, una variedad trepadora de orquídea conocida comercialmente como v. Planifolia o v. Tahitensis. Para obtener frutos de la planta de orquídea, la polinización manual de la flor de vainilla debe ocurrir dentro de las 12 horas posteriores a la floración. Una vez polinizada, la flor da el fruto de vainilla verde. Durante muchos meses de cultivo, cosecha y curado, esta judía verde se convertirá en lo que la mayoría de la gente conoce como vaina de vainilla.

Once the vanilla orchid has been pollinated, it takes up to 9 months before the vanilla beans are ready to harvest. It is important they’re not picked too early. Once the vanilla beans have been harvested, they are killed to commence the enzymatic reaction for the production of vanillin. Finally, they go through a curing process and drying process.
