La Plantation Vanilla-Bourbon is located in the heart of the Sainte-Rose heights forest, 300 meters above sea level. It is here that grows this vanilla so appreciated by the great chefs of gastronomy and connoisseurs.
The forest, hosting the exploitation on 5 hectares, is a protected site, sheltering a multitude of endemic species, on an old casting dating from 1708.
Concerned about the environment of the planet, the cultivation of vanilla is therefore done with the greatest respect for nature and the forest.
