These beans were plump with a heavenly aroma. 8 ounces exactly. I will order again.These smelled great. I am using them for making vanilla. They were very dry and hard to split, but overall seem like a good product. I will post an update when my vanilla is done.I hate the high prices of vanilla beans, but if your going to buy them get the best you can afford. These are superior to some of the beans on the market. Shipping was very fast. They can vacuumed sealed.I am very pleased w/my beans, thank you! They were an even 5 inches long, perfectly packaged, containing 69 beans in the 4oz. The aroma outside the amazon pkg was unbelievable! YES!!!! I will buy again-soon!Who, what a great purchase! I got 65 Madagascar grade B vanilla beans for $44. I'll only buy vanilla beans by the ounce instead of by a number in a pack from now on.Very good. Exactly as described.We are making our own vanilla. Our beans were nice and arrived quickly.Weight was right on and good quality.
