Tonka bean

Dipteryx Odorata Net volumes and weights: 50ml / 50g / 1.76oz Origin: Brazil Description: This large tree of the teak family is native to South America. It produces a fruit that contains highly sought-after fragrant beans, which required special treatment in order to develop all their aromas. They are mainly produced in Venezuela. The beans contain a natural organic aromatic substance, coumarin, which is reminiscent of vanillin and is highly sought after by perfumers.

You will pair it with fine fish like trout, with a supreme of poultry, in a fine soup, with tomatoes and potatoes.& nbsp; In the sweet register, it will be perfect with chocolate, melon, cherries, oranges, rhubarb, apricot, coconut or with honey.
