Hawaiian Vanilla Co.

A must-see. It's worth every minute. The stash are wonderful, and love what they do. Lunch was incredible with the vanilla in everything. Very interesting tour of the farm. I have trouble walking, and they were so nice to have a ride for me.

We had a wonderful lunch and vanilla farm tour with Zak. Zak provided outstanding service right from the start. He expertly described each course of the lunch and most importantly each course was absolutely delicious! After the lunch was over, Zak gave a great tour of the farm and provided a lot of really interesting information. We even got to see him manually pollinate a few vanilla flowers. We would highly recommend this tour for a delicious lunch and fun and interesting farm tour!

Absolutely an amazing experience. Try the tasting if you can. It's a great prelude to the tour. The dishes for the tasting will change your mind about how to incorporate vanilla into dishes. Our guide Bryce is knowledgeable, personable and entertaining while he discusses vanilla and Hawaiian agriculture. You'll leave understanding and appreciating why vanilla and real vanilla extract cost so much.

We had signed up for the tasting tour, but there was a mix up and we were offered to take a lunch tour…..and so thankful to have done it. The lunch was incredible - an eye opener for the uses of vanilla. Just amazing food. Everyone we interacted with is passionate about the company - you can see the love and passion they have. From the food, to the tour….just an incredible experience. So glad we took the road less traveled to come here. Absolutely worth the time

What a great time I had. Zack is indeed knowledgeable and a true vanilla evangelist. It was interesting and fun and I got to sample some amazing popcorn, coffee, and ice cream. I will be back for the lunch!! 😍😍😍

Educational & Delicious My taste buds could not have been happier after the tasting lunch with Hawaiian's Vanilla Company. It was about an hour drive up very pretty cliff coastlines from Hilo and 100% worth it. I had no idea all the steps and details that goes into harvesting vanilla and was fascinated by the very informative tour in the shade-house and getting to see the multiple stages of the plant close up. We will be coming again on any future trips to the Big Island.

Great lunch and interesting tour! The lunch of a shrimp appetizer, chicken sandwich and salad - all made with vanilla- is quite delicious! Fun to learn new ways to use vanilla. After lunch you walk to the vanilla greenhouse to learn about the farming, harvest and production of vanilla. Zak dies a fantastic job of making all that interesting and at times funny. After the tour you are back for ice cream and coffee. Yum! The shop has many types of vanilla products to choose from Highly recommend this!!

Please, take this tour if you can! It is very informative and Zach, the Vanilla Evangelist, will convert you into a vanilla lover in less than an hour. There is so much more to vanilla than I new of before I went on this tour! The history of the facility was also very interesting. The ice cream and coffee afterward was phenomenal! Really enjoyed this tour. 10 stars!!!!

This should be a must when visiting the big island! We did this as a sort of last minute thing but it turned out to be a great choice. We did the chocolate at Honoka'a right before and it was actually perfect - a chocolate and vanilla tour the same day! These two places should team up and do back to back experiences. We got the lunch version and this was so amazing. The food was fantastic. A 3 course with appetizer, entree, and dessert. Each course was soooooooooo good! And the use of vanilla was perfect. The shrimp appetizer had an amazing chutney which I recommend. Then a chicken sandwich with a small salad and potatoes. Everything had a hint of vanilla - a vanilla brioche bunch on the sandwich. The potatoes had the pineapple vanilla chutney to dip with. Even the iced tea was such a great presentation of vanilla. Then we went to the farm and Bryce was so knowledgeable! He danced the fine line of bragging up the product and getting you to make a purchase without too much of a sales job. As he explained the value of buying from small farmers direct you wanted to buy and change your whole ideas about getting specialty items you enjoy. Then back for coffee and ice cream that was so delicious. Just a great day and find for us!

Scott was super helpful in setting my family up with Tour. Zack was absolutely amazing with his knowledge and experience in vanilla! The different foods showcased the Bean!

Exceptional experience. Zak. This guy has the two key ingredients for love of what you do...education and passion. We had no idea of the complexity and dedication inherent to vanilla farming. Now, our appreciation of the process is greatly enhanced. The tour was wonderful, the food/drink was tasty, and the staff were awesome. Highly recommend.

Went with low expectation of vanilla farm tour (our grandma booked it) ....Pleasantly Surprised...Beautiful well kept exterior buildings with manicured gardens. We were greeted with a Smile and playful personality of our host Zak while he educated the use of vanilla with each food/drink item served. The indoor dining area was charming, furnished with custom tables too beautiful to eat on. His playful spirit kept all of us engaged while sharing his vast knowledge of the history,cultivation and pollination throughout the tour. Perfect combination of purchasable items in their gift shop to take a little ...or a lot of Hawaiian Vanilla Company home with you !!! Far exceeded our expectations...Thank You so much.

Well let's just say we drove all the way from Keauhou just to pick up 5 bottles of the Vanilla extract (1 1/2 hours) then come home. The vanilla extract is worth the trek for it, gotta try it. Since we were there, I figured I would try the vanilla milkshake too..it was good and refreshing. The young girl working was pulling a trifecta as sales person, cashier and milkshake maker...she was awesome! The drive off the main highway up the mountain, really gives you an idea what the old highway of Hawaii used to be like. Winding up the mountain gradually with trees and brush on both sides, sometimes one car road only, pretty cool. The store itself has good parking out front but can fill up pretty quickly if a big group is booked for the tour. Overall Hawaiian Vanilla is a must visit.

Well worth the drive up the island! The meal was tasty , the coffee & ice cream yummmmm!! Zak is the vanilla whisperer! So much knowledge and he has cute kids too!! Thank you Zak & Alicia for an excellent day in vanilla heaven !!!

What an incredible experience! I would highly recommend this tour. We even had our 5 & 4 yr old with us and they did great! We learned so much. We had an awesome tour guide! This is definitely a must do and we drove an hour to do this.

This luncheon and tour exceeded our expectations. The entire meal was infused with vanilla. I thought the shrimp appetizer was delicious. It had notes of vanilla which balanced out the salt and spices. We then had a plated lunch. The salad with feta had a dressing on it that was memorable. The chicken sandwich was great too. But the potatoes and chutney were the stars! Wow, I really appreciated that they served savory dishes using Hawaiian vanilla. The lemonade and ice tea were even infused with vanilla! Then, We had a fantastic time on the tour. Zac, our tour guide, was a wealth of information. He is a true vanilla evangelist. He taught us so much in the space of thirty minutes. Then we ended with vanilla ice cream with coffee.Oh, what a lovely vanilla infused day. We bought some soaps and Hawaiian extract. I will always be grateful for such an educational and delicious experience.

YOU HAVE TO GO! Now my review is only on the ice cream and lemonade as I did not have the pleasure of the tour, but just that alone is worth your drive if you are in the area. Location: Situated about 15 minutes outside of Waimea sits this wonderful gem. I was randomly Yelping while in the Waimea area and came across it. The turn off the highway comes up quickly so be prepared. The drive up from the highway is relatively steep but is paved. Please be mindful there are residence there, so please be respectful and drive at a safe speed. Offerings: As noted, I only stopped in a quick one and had their vanilla bean ice cream and vanilla lemonade. Can I just say, I litereally DAY DREAM about their ice cream. The creaminess of the ice cream is like frozen custard. Yet what got me is the amount and "crunch" of the vanilla beans. It is quite an experience. As someone who has lived on Big Island my whole life, I am so sad I have only experienced this one of a kind bite now. Fun fact, they also offer alcohol you can add to your menu items. Service: Very personalble staff. Great listening to them briefly go over some vanilla bean facts, especially the stringent growing conditions. Just hearing the hardwork that goes into it made the flavor oh so better. We got to enjoy our ice cream out on their covered patio. Sitting amongst the beautiful mountian flora with the cool breeze blowing and the afternoon birds chirping was one of the most relaxing moments I've had in awhile. Go check em out!

Absolutely fascinating, entertaining & informative tour of a small vanilla farm. Zack "the Vanilla Evangelist" was super charming, funny & really knowledgeable! We learned so much about the spice, including its history, the growing process, the business, and, of course, recipes!! The accompanying meal was delicious, but, alas, fairly underwhelming, especially for the price. Skip the meal; just do the tour.

Overpriced luncheon. 4 of us at my table were unable to taste vanilla. The server was the same guy full of perspiration from the tour he had just finished before our lunch. Poor guy took drink orders, served everything and gave the your.... We recommend only the tour and save $$. Learned a lot on the tour.

What a great find! The drive up from the Kona coast is very scenic. The community around the Vanilla company is very rural, and peaceful. The staff (Zack and Noel) is very accommodating and friendly. The drinks and desserts are just delicious , especially the vanilla ice cream. The shop has some really unique products (kind of pricy though). The tour to the vanilla plants with Zack was informative and interesting. He gave a great demonstration an about how to pollinate a vanilla plant--a very delicate matter! Later Zack gave us some great cooking tips abut vanilla while we were eating that some delish vanilla ice cream. Highly recommended if you want to do something a little different while in Hawaii.

The lunch, the ambiance, the tour, everything was perfect. We were not disappointed. Highly recommend.

If you're looking for an activity to do on the Big Island and this is one of your contenders, this is the one to pick! My family and I came to visit today. My mom and I had tickets for the vanilla farm walking tour, and the rest of my family stayed inside and enjoyed some coffee. The farm was easy to find with GPS and there are a couple signs pointing you in the correct direction from the road. The road can be a little bumpy at times, but it was nothing too bad. Plenty of parking. We arrived and were immediately greeted by the staff and checked in for the tour. Our tour included a drink. My mom got a vanilla lemonade, and I got the "Jimmy Boy" which is a blend of vanilla lemonade and tea. Both were great! For the tour, you will walk about .25 of a mile down to the farm area. If you don't want to or have difficulty walking, they also can shuttle you down and back up for free. Our tour guide was Bryce, and he was great! He kept my mom and I engaged in learning about vanilla and the process the entire time. Anytime I thought I had a question, he answered it before I thought to ask. You could tell that he was very passionate about what he does and the future for vanilla. The tour ended with vanilla ice cream and coffee! The shop is great, but please if you're going to visit, take the tour. You will learn so much and it will truly change your view on where you purchase vanilla from and allow you to make informed decisions on where you spend your money and what you spend it on. I was happy to purchase a vanilla extract kit, vanilla extract, spice rub, and a tea sampler here. The tour took place in the vanilla farm under a shade. They recommended bringing one of the provided umbrellas down if you are photosensitive or heat sensitive. I would disregard any negative reviews here related to the shop or the tour. This was an amazing experience as I would highly recommend.

One of my favorite places on the Big Island. Plan ahead and take one of their tours. Food is amazing. Service is top rate Unique to the Island

This was probably the best tour/ farm tour that my family and I have ever been on. Our guide was beyond impressive! We learned everything from the history of vanilla to farming and sustainability on the island to cooking techniques. We were even fortunate enough to get to witness the hand pollination techniques they utilize. If nothing else this was probably the best vanilla ice cream I've ever tasted. I highly recommend this vanilla iced tea!

My family and I went to the tasting tour and enjoyed experience! We learned more about Vanilla's history, production, and new recipes. Our tour guide, Bryce was also very friendly and passionate. By the way, if you purchase more than $200 of products in the gift shop (we did), they will also offer free shipping.

I had the lunch with tour experience and I highly recommend it. The food was great and the tour was so awesome. I like learning new things. I have made my own vanilla extract before but this was so informative. Great tour and amazing tour guide. Do it if you can.

I've been here a couple times for a tour and lunch, but this was the first time I visited for their afternoon tea. I always thought their lunch experience was the best, but their afternoon tea is the bestest! They start you off with bringing out little spoons of their four tea leaves to see and smell while they are each described. You then get your own teapot and a strainer. They all smelled good and just wish I could've had a small taste of each, but decided on the black tea with vanilla and cinnamon, and it was exquisite. Then the delightful array of food started to arrive. First up was a red pepper bisque soup with a salad, then a small chicken sandwich, and then the three tiered tray of pastries. Lastly was a small sample of their vanilla bean ice cream with a lillikoi sauce. I could write a 5 page review about each item, but I highly recommend you go and try them all. The farm and is a wonderful place and the lanai in back of the store where their lunch and tea is served is surrounded by Hawaiian plants and foliage, and is breathtaking and serene. Emmy, our host for the experience, was a pro and very knowledgeable about all the operations of the vanilla farm. Such a delightful experience!

We took the lunch and tour. During the lunch the tour guide explained every dish. We then went on the tour which involved sitting in the screened growing area where he gave us the history of vanilla and so many interesting facts on growing it. He was a great speaker. After the completion of the tour, we went back and had ice cream and coffee. He said to try the coffee first. Then taste the ice cream which you could really taste the vanilla. Then he said to take a sip of the coffee and it was amazing how the ice cream brought out the vanilla in the coffee!! The food was good although I really couldn't taste the vanilla in all of the dishes. I recommend taking the tour and lunch since you are bound to learn something new.

This was so interesting Zak was a wealth of knowledge. Really enjoyed the tasting and learning all about Vanilla

While visiting the Big Island we wanted to try something that was not zip lining or riding ATVs since we're older. Researching Google, found this place that offered a lunch and tour at $75 per person plus it's a family run business. We stayed on the Kona side and this farm was located on the north side so it was a 1.5 hour drive. Thankfully, it was an extremely scenic drive! This side was warm and sunny. The road leading to the farm was winding but also scenic. There was a small parking lot. The building had signs to meet in the gift shop. The gift shop was really cute and stocked with vanilla infused items. The youngest son of the owner greeted us warmly and we were led to the patio and took our seats at the tables. He explained what we could expect from the luncheon. Thankfully I made note of my shellfish allergy for the appetizer on a crostini then we had salad & marinated chicken on freshly baked sweet roll and sliced potatoes. OMG! Superb! The flavors were enhanced by the use of their vanilla infused condiments. After our luncheon the group hoofed it to their vineyard which was growing the vanilla. Never realized how labor intensive it is to cultivate! It was so interesting and made you develop a deeper appreciation for vanilla. After the tour was over, we returned to the gift shop where we were served delicious Hawaiian coffee and their homemade sumptuous vanilla bean ice cream. Of course, I bought some souvenirs from the shop. Highly recommend this tour and lunch if you're ever on the Big Island.

The drive up to the Hawaiian Vanilla Company was a pretty picturesque and cool experience, up winding roads, one-laned bridges, pastures and fields on every side, rolling hills and views of the ocean driving down, so just getting to the Hawaiian Vanilla Company was an experience in itself. Once we got to the building there was very limited parking out in front, so we parked on the side along the building and walked in. It was like walking into someone's house, very cozy and quaint on the outside and when you went indoors, it was pretty large. We did not do the tour/lunch here which cost about $90/person because we were traveling without an agenda or time schedule and also didn't want to spend the money. We just spent about 20 minutes in the gift shop, which was filled with a lot of nice goods. I ended up buying a floral tea, which I plan on infusing some white wine with. The shop catered to the the tour/lunch goers, which is totally understandable. Upon walking in, there was a counter with teas and drinks and I had to ask if it was for the tours only, which I was told it was, and I was also thanked for asking, because apparently, walk-ins like myself have tried to drink things only reserved for the tour people, so do not eat or drink anything that's set out if you are not in the tour, or ask first! We did end up making it to The Vanillerie in Kona (see my review on The Vanillerie) and that was a pretty cool experience as well, as it was only $20 for the one-hour tour, and that's all we were interested in, a short one-hour tour with no lunch because it fit into our budget and our time availability.

Hawaiian Vanilla Farm was recommended by a local resident, and it did not disappoint! Lunch was delicious and the tour was incredibly informative. We would recommend this tour to anyone!

Not only a cool place to visit but a very educational experience. Cool to find out how important vanilla could be to Hawaii and its growth for the future. Staff was awesome and wonderful to talk to. We had a very good time eating and talking about the many things vanilla can be used for.

We went for the lunch and tour of the vanilla farm. We learned so much about vanilla. Zach was amazing and so knowledgeable. All the different food with some vanilla in it. I loved the shrimp on a crostini with vanilla. We would recommend the lunch and tour.

We leaned a lot about Vanilla, and why it's so expensive. The Vanilla plants look very green, grow in a beautiful environment with nice ocean breeze. The lunch was very good, a little pricy but it's Hawaii right, love the Vanilla drink and the vanilla ice cream. Zach did a great job!

The experience was awesome! Food was outstanding and creative. Tour was interesting and educational but in a cool way, not a boring way. The guys are very passionate about Hawaii, farming and the customer experience. This is a must-do when on Hawaii. I look forward to returning. PS-Get the root beer float!

Off the beaten path and a perfect way to spend an afternoon. We visited for afternoon tea. It was not only delicious, but super interesting and informative! The tea itself was all infused with vanilla and tasted heavenly - there were many varieties to choose from and we loved them all. The tea service featured three courses: soup/salad, shrimp crostinis, and a huge tower of savory and sweet pastries. Finally, vanilla ice cream! We ate on the covered patio which was charming, clean, and breezy. We learned so much about agriculture in Hawaii as well as vanilla farming. We left laden with vanilla products. Can't recommend enough!

My husband and I were on Hawaii for four days and after a volcano tour, we wanted to do something different. I saw a flier at our hotel for Hawaiian Vanilla Company and we decided to book the lunch and tour. We weren't disappointed. The lunch was amazing and we even had he vanilla iced tea. After the tour, we both had the vanilla bean ice cream and coffee...wow. The tour itself was very eye opening in terms of what goes in to growing and cultivating the perfect vanilla beans and the status of vanilla on the islands and in the world today. If you want to do something unique that doesn't break the bank, please consider visiting the farm.

Zachary exceeded all expectations! He made it interesting and fun to listen to the history of vanilla and the farm! Highly recommend if looking for something that is different!

This was a marvelous tour. We started the tour with a refreshing glass of Vanilla Lemonade and finish with some of their handmade vanilla ice cream and some Hawaiian coffee. The surrounding were pleasant. A gentle hike to where the vanilla plants are growing. Zac our guide was engaging, informative and accommodating. I can't praise him enough!

We had a great time on the vanilla tour. The lemonade and tea at the beginning as well as the ice cream and coffee at the end were delicious. The vanilla presentation was funny, informative, and just the right amount of time. Not a ton of walking, although the tour goes down a big hill to a greenhouse and then back up. I genuinely never knew vanilla was so interesting and it seems like it could be a really cool up and coming crop for Hawaii. The farm seems like they are trying to do a lot for the community and other farmers and spread the opportunity of growing vanilla. There was also a small curated selection of delicious vanilla products in their gift shop, including less common items like body fragrance and root beer. They were cooking lunch for the lunch tour as we were leaving and it smelled incredible.

We did the lunch and tour on January 11, 2025 with Zack. The lunch was fabulous! They are very accommodating with food allergies and readily make substitutions, so just ask them! The meal was very filling too. I had expected just a sampling but it was a full on lunch. The tour was by far the best tour we have ever taken. Zack was throwing out so much information in that one hour tour, it was amazing and was hard to absorb it all! He even walked backwards talking to the group, and provided bonus information unrelated to Vanilla! He pointed out a plant similar to the Venus Flytrap and demonstrated how the plant retracts when touched. Super cool! It is clear that Zack LOVES his job and his exuberance shows in his service, his countenance, his knowledge, and everything he does. The farm is off the beaten path but please take the time to visit. The effort is worth it and you will not be disappointed!

My daughter and I really enjoyed our visit. The tea was amazing. The vanilla story was very interesting. And I really enjoyed the vanilla products available for to purchase. When I come back I will return as the tea was awesome. We had some wonderful prepared food. Thank you HVC!

My mom was visiting me and we decided to visit Hilo side for the weekend. We both love vanilla, so a visit to the Hawaiian Vanilla Co. Was a must. We attended the tasting and farm tour. The tasting had 3 courses of absolutely delicious food - did you know you can use vanilla in savory dishes? The farm tour was interesting. Who knew how fussy and particular vanilla plants are?! The plants currently at the farm are not producing vanilla just yet. Our guide explained the very meticulous way the plants have to be hand pollinated. I would like to recommend better visuals to explain the pollination process. The photos passed around were a bit old. Perhaps there are artificial flowers that could be used? All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our time and felt the price of the experience was very reasonable.

The tour of the shade structure where the vanilla orchids grow was fascinating, the people friendly, and the whole thing accessible and interesting. Emily (our guide) had crayons and coloring pages for the kids, which was exactly the kind of attention to detail that characterized this whole company. The best part though was trying the various vanilla products that they sell in the gift shop. The coffee! The ice cream! The lemonade! The milkshakes (did I mention the ice cream?)! The spices, the nuts, the sugar and salt. So impressive. The staff is lovely and most of them live right there in or near the farm. It's clearly a tight-knit group that really believes in the work they are doing. We only did the tour not the luncheon, because we had kiddos with us who are picky eaters, but honestly based on everything we did try at the shop I really wish we had done the luncheon. If you can do it, definitely do it. I have a feeling it was worth the price!

Boy, I had a lovely experience touring the Hawaiian Vanilla Company though that went "south" once arriving back to the Mainland. Opened the bottle of vanilla beans purchased January 25th and they were very moldy. For a business that touts itself on sustainability, agro "activists" and "goal to cultivate the best Vanilla in the world", the "moldy" beans were a major disappointment. Adding insult to injury, the jar of three beans cost $45.00. I've reached out to the business and haven't had a response. Just letting fellow "Yelpers" know to check out their purchases before leaving.

Food, tour and ambiance was awesome. Zak was very knowledgeable and the process they have to do for the vanilla bean is time consuming.

What a find! A beautiful drive to a special place in Hawaii. Not a tourist trap, but the real Hawaii. First class food and fascinating information about the vanilla bean and its orchid. Sign up for the lunch and the tour and be rewarded for your drive with great food and friendly people who are excited about their products and way of life. Zach the vanilla evangelist is a fountain of information and enthusiasm. Great Trip, Do NOT miss it!

Zak was amazing! The tour was very informative not only about Hawaiian vanilla but also about the founder, local culture and environment. Zak took time to answer everyone's questions. The tips on how to cook using vanilla were so great. The vanilla lemonade, coffee and ice cream were fabulous! Recommend highly.

I enjoyed our visit here. We had been wanting to come for a few years and decided to make the drive over on this trip. Worth it! We didn't sign up for the tour and came about two hours before it but the nice guy working took the guests there out back and gave us a mini tour. Very interesting and informative. I now understand why vanilla extract is as expensive as it is. Next time we will probably come back for the full tour and lunch. Great little gift shop and free shipping to the mainland so I ordered plenty of stuff! Also tried the vanilla shake it was probably the best one I've ever had. Nice people, easy and scenic drive, interesting place = recommend.

We did the farm tour only and it was great. The information that was given during the tour was outstanding. We enjoyed the walk down to the covered growing area with no problem physically.

I live on the big island and finally made it out to the Hawaiian Vanilla Company after having it on my radar and meaning to come for years. Finally had some family visiting looking for things to do off the beaten path so we all headed up the coast to the vanilla farm, and couldn't be happier that we did! First of all although the website highlights their chicken sandwich as the feature of the meal, we called ahead to make sure they could accommodate to vegetarian and other dietary restrictions and were pleased to discover they are happy to cater to any needs. The vegetarian option was a large puff pastry stuffed with cream cheese and roasted red peppers cooked perfectly crispy and topped with a vanilla mango chutney. Our whole party was blown away by the quality of all the food. The best was still yet to come though, as we headed out on the tour lead by the incredibly knowledgeable Zak! We took an easy stroll down to a large shade house and sat among rows of beautiful vanilla vines. There was so much to learn about this special plant, and our whole group left with a newfound appreciation of what it takes to enjoy REAL quality vanilla. We stocked up at the gift shop, so happy to support some of the only ethically grown vanilla beans in the world and have the chance to buy some of the ingredients that were used in the lunch that we had tried so we can recreate it at home. And the ice cream!! Probably the best vanilla ice cream in the world. Checkout employee Scott was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. So thank you for the help! Perfect, peaceful environment, great value, delicious food and the whole staff was so kind and knowledgeable. Can't recommend enough.

The food was amazing! Bryce was so knowledgeable and passionate about the farm. We learned so much of the processing and that goes into making real vanilla! Highly recommend this tour! Mahalo, Angie, Teresa and Vicki

Thank you for a most informative and delicious experience. Zack, who describes life as a vanilla evangelist, did a great job of making us feel welcome. The lunch was delicious and the farm tour is well worth the drive up into the beautiful hillside vineyard.

Excellent everything! The lunch, tour, and staff were all amazing. it's a bit of a drive, but definitely well worth it! highly recommend spending the extra money for the full lunch!

This wasn't really a planned day. But let me tell you it was a highlight. We arrived 5 minutes before the 1:15 pm tour and signed up. Zach was our guide. He was amazing and so nice! We learned a lot! We asked questions and it was so intetesting. Thank you for having us! Btw the drinks ( Jimmy boy, lemonade and ice cream were so good!

We stopped by and there wasn't much. There's a little cafe and got vanilla ice tea. You can pay $75 which includes tour and lunch. Sold out that day. A worker there showed us some orchid plants near the seating area. The vanilla products were pricey. I'm sure it is good. We had to drive up to find this place. I would say unless you are a super vanilla user, you might want to skip.
