Im not going for the length record (because this is normal for us) but I counted the beans and there were only 153 beans to the Kg, making an average of 6.5 grams a bean. In addition we just had the vanillin content of our beans tested by an FDA approved company using chemical analysis methodology, and that shows that they contain 2.65% vanillin, which is up there with the highest in the world.
