It's wonderful. The stuff I get is from Williams Sonoma. It's by Neilsen-Massey, the people who make the wonderful Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla. All it is, is vanilla mixed with vanilla bean paste. So you get a double whammy of vanilla. It's a bit thicker than regular vanilla and is a tiny bit sweeter but you use the same amount. PLEASE try it!
