Kochi's First Vanilla Success

Starting with zero knowledge, the Sawadas became the first to successfully cultivate vanilla beans in Kochi Prefecture, Japan. After overcoming initial failures and learning new techniques, they celebrated their first harvest three and a half years later. The process requires meticulous hand-pollination of day-blooming flowers, followed by a two-month fermentation using a specialized Taiwanese curing machine. The resulting vanilla boasts a vibrant aroma that professional pâtissiers say easily rivals premium Madagascar beans. Confident in this initial success, the couple is now preparing for full-scale production next year to share their locally grown vanilla with a wider audience.

Taiwanese Pompona & Bourbon Vanilla

In Puli Township, Taiwan, farmers are expertly cultivating two distinct vanilla varieties: the rare Pompona and the globally beloved Bourbon.
