We bought this Simply Organic Pure Vanilla Extract (madagascar flavor) via Subscribe and Save. I thought it was a good value for the 4 oz bottle, under $7 after the added savings.

It does arrive in a glass bottle and as advertised and pictured. My reason for rating it 4 stars rather than 5 is that it's less flavorful than others we've had.

Others we've had, have been non-organic, and we switched because of the chemicals. We use almost twice as much though and the flavor is quite subtle.

We like that it's USDA Organic and will probably order it again for that reason. I might look into another brand in hopes of finding one a bit more flavorful.

Uploading some photos so you can get a closer look at it upon arrival. Smile. Hope this is helpful!

WEAK FLAVOR - WATERED DOWN - OVERPRICED

I love and use a LOT of vanilla. Right now I have five different bottles from different makes and different countries. This one is the weakest flavor in my cupboard, and seams to be watered-down. The ingredients list supports this suspicion. I'm disappointed that this item had an Amazon recommendation. So, if you buy it, just double or triple the amount normally used, and then it is okay - just overpriced.

It tastes like vanilla but the flavor is very weak. Very disappointing considering that it is not on the cheap side.
Also, pretty much everything else is wrong:
* there are unattractive bits of vanilla pods floating in the extract - not pretty
* tools are required to break the plastic seal on the cap
* the bottle is frustratingly idiotic and really unusable - all the extract runs along the bottle and drips off the bottom of the bottle. As I didn't have another bottle readily available, that's the point where I decided to bin the product.

Pretty Good, but Not The Best

For a vanilla extract, this isn't bad. My wife has the more discerning palate, and she thinks its a bit "harsh" tasting compared to the Simply Organic Vanilla Flavoring, which seems to have no alcohol. I noticed the difference only after she gave me her opinion.

This product is still better than any of the major grocery store brands. We use vanilla flavoring in a "no-bake" application to make vanilla syrup for latte's. I'm not sure how this compares for baking.

I Will Repurchase, But It's Not As Concentrated as Other Brands

I use a fair amount of vanilla extract, and I've tried several brands over the years. I really like the thought of one that was certified organic, so I got this to try.

I like this extract, but for some reason, it doesn't seem to be as strong as many other extracts. It could just be a different type of vanilla bean being used, but I am finding I have to use more in my recipes. On the other hand -- the flavor is good.

I like this and will purchase again, mainly because I want to have as many organic ingredients as I can. But as I said -- I wish it was a bit stronger.

This is a very flavorful vanilla extract. Usually I like to cut and scrape a vanilla bean. But, there are times when an extract is just what is needed. I found this on Amazon as an add-on item. It was reasonable in price and organic.
I am impressed. This is as good a vanilla extract as any I've used. Nicely sized for the price and arrived in 2 days via Prime.

I've been trying different vanilla extracts lately; so far this is my favorite. For the last 20 years, I have been buying the cheapest Imitation vanilla from the grocery store. I have lately been trying premium spices, and they make all the difference. I tried Watkins brand vanilla, which is good, but I like this Simply Organic better. This brand seems to be the best in every spice I try.
