Heilala Vanilla Inc

Heilala Vanilla’s origins began in 2002 as a aid project founded New Zealander, John Ross, and his family. The Kingdom of Tonga had been ravaged by Cyclone Waka, leaving the Islands and its people shattered in the wake of an exceptionally vicious natural disaster. Partnering with a local family in the village of Utungake, together they established a small vanilla plantation that robustly grew into the world renowned humanitarian vanilla brand, Heilala Vanilla. Grown on rich, Pacific soil and dried under the Polynesian sun, the world’s best vanilla is an all natural product of a perfect climate. With a highlyscientific, unrefined process (coldpressed, slowextract), and an artisan work culture of the hardworking local farmers and families, Heilala Vanilla is innovating outdated Vanilla products and production. From its distinctive flavor, its humanitarian mission and fair treatment of farmers, Heilala Vanilla makes people feel as good as the product tastes. Heilala Vanilla is authentic pure Madagascar Bourbon vanilla. Complex, rich, and bursting with flavor.
