How the vanilla naming field is organised
The scope of this document is centred on vanilla-related terminology for the plants and products associated with vanilla. It covers Vanilla fragrans (syn. Vanilla planifolia), including commercial forms known by geographical origin names such as Bourbon, Indonesia, and Mexico, as well as Vanilla tahitensis and certain seed-derived forms that may be hybrids. Vanilla pompona Schiede, known as Antilles vanilla, is excluded from the standard’s scope.
AS GENERAL TECHNICAL CONTEXT, vanilla vocabulary standards help distinguish between botanical species, commercial designations, aroma source material, cured pods, extracts, and related product forms. That distinction matters because the same common name can refer to different plant origins or traded materials depending on region and usage, especially in spices and flavourings.
