Who We Are
A single origin, handled end to end.
Direct Sourcing Commitment
We collaborate with smallholder farmers across West Java, Central Java, and Bali to provide fair pricing, organic cultivation guidance, and guaranteed harvest buybacks.
Nusantara Bourbon Vanilla works directly with Indonesian smallholder growers, then takes the beans through curing, conditioning and grading in our own facility. Nothing is bought loose on the spot market.
That tight control is what lets us tell a buyer exactly which harvest a consignment came from, what its moisture reading was on the day it was packed, and how it will perform in an extraction tank or a specialty pastry kitchen.
Full technical specifications, custom packaging options, and current harvest availability are issued per inquiry. Samples ship worldwide.
