Nest’s Iconic Madagascar Vanilla

At the heart of Iced Vanilla Woods lies Nest Madagascar vanilla. This isn't just any vanilla.

The Allure of Vanilla

Vanilla may be a plain flavor, but its effect is far from boring. Studies have shown that vanilla can have genuine mood-boosting qualities, which explains why people are so attracted to it. The key lies in vanillin, the compound responsible for vanilla's smell and taste.

Humans are born with an innate preference for vanillin molecules. As far back as the 19th century, pioneering scientist Eugen Charabot marveled at how “No other essence has ever given the physiological effect ...of vanilla.”

Beyond purely scent preferences, modern research has uncovered feel-good effects of vanilla on mood and cognition.
