If anybody ever wants to split on an order of vanilla beans, I have ordered here before. Very good quality.

I've seen vanilla beans at costco too, anyone ever tried those ones?
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

A certain brewer we all know has spoken of the costco beans... you can ask him how he found them.
