Tahitian Vanilla (Vanilla tahitensis)
Vanilla tahitensis, commonly known as Tahitian vanilla, is a unique species of vanilla orchid that is prized for its distinct flavor and aroma. This orchid species is native to French Polynesia, particularly Tahiti, and is known for producing a different type of vanilla bean compared to the more widely cultivated Vanilla planifolia, the species responsible for most of the world's vanilla production.
