Vanilla Bean

The Story
Vanilla Bean is a rich, natural vanilla that feels like the real thing. It opens with a burst of boozy rum and bitter cocoa, then settles into a creamy, almost edible vanilla bean heart. The base is warm and woody, with a touch of tobacco that keeps it from being too sweet. This is a vanilla for grown-ups.
