Watkins Vanilla

Watkins vanilla was introduced in 1895. Since that time, Watkins Original Double Strength Vanilla has been famous for taste and quality and the preferred choice of discriminating cooks. Vanilla is possibly the most popular flavor in the world today, and no many manufacturers can boast a name association with vanilla like Watkins can.

Watkins blends its vanilla with the finest quality vanilla beans available. These are known as the Bourbon variety, and many of them are grown on the island of Madagascar just off the coast of Africa. This hard to produce crop is of such high quality that just one bean can retail for $3 or more.

Good quality vanilla has a strong aromatic flavor, but foodstuffs with small amounts of low quality vanilla or artificial vanilla-like flavorings are far more common, since true vanilla is much more expensive.

Watkins Vanilla is a proprietary blend of genuine vanilla extract and rich fortifiers. This results in a delicious, intense flavor that is very economical to use and ensures superior results in cooking and baking. The Watkins vanilla formula is both bake-proof and freeze-proof. The flavor retains its fresh and aromatic character, and won’t dissipate when making ice cream or baking foods at high temperature. The formula is also much lower in alcohol than common brands (8.25 percent versus 35 percent found in pure vanilla extract). Vanilla products high in alcohol can suffer loss of flavor when heated.

Try this revealing demonstration of the quality of Watkins’ Original Double Strength Vanilla. Take the Watkins vanilla and a common store brand. Put a drop of the Watkins vanilla on your right index finger, and a drop of the store brand on your left. Rub both fingers with your thumbs. Smell. The Watkins product will have a strong and delightful aroma, while the aroma of the competitive product will be much weaker and diminished. This is in part because the competitive product contains much more alcohol, and is unstable. It loses flavor through evaporation.
