4th & Heart Vanilla Bean Grass-Fed Ghee, Clarified Butter, Keto, Pasture Raised, Non-GMO, Lactose and Casein Free, Certified Paleo (9 Ounces)

I am not a huge fan of ghee, I find that it either tastes like plastic, is too expensive, or I don't like the results I get from it's use. Yet I keep trying . . . I want to like it . . .I think I've found the ghee for me! When you first open the jar you will notice the nutty smell of the ghee, followed by the subtle but present scent of vanilla. It reminds me of a candle. Straight it is quite pleasant, it tastes just as it smells with no chemical or burnt plastic flavor that so many brands have. The texture is smooth and creamy, no clumps or hard pieces. Following the suggestion of a friend, I tried it in my coffee, which I normally drink black. It was a pleasant, filling drink. I didn't taste a huge amount of vanilla so if you are looking for a vanilla latte this isn't going to give it to you, but it is nice for a change. There isn't any sweetness that I could detect.I have also tried the pink Himalayan salt version from this company and enjoyed it for cooking and air frying veggies.

To start with, allow me to introduce myself as someone who considers butter a food group by itself, and it also happens to be my favorite food group. That said, I have been exploring healthier options and have been reading much about the composition of butter based on the cows' diets and grass fed is the only way to go considering it's better micro-nutrient profile, including much higher levels of CLA, better Omega-3 to Omega-6 fatty acid ratios and significantly higher levels of Vitamin A and E. Additionally helps to lower cholesterol and boost the metabolism. Cool! Taking this into consideration healthier butter seems to somewhat lessen the risk that someone is going to find me having passed away in my house after my not showing up for work for a couple days. Even cooler since my pajamas aren't all that flattering.For those transitioning to ghee from butter, the taste of many ghees seems to be lacking somewhat, until finding this! The vanilla bean is absolutely amazing in this ghee! In fact, I am using this in my coffee with some MCT oil (bulletproof coffee) and it is the best coffee I've ever had (coffee is also a food group for me). The taste of this ghee is nothing short of decadent, and more than worth the price, as the flavor and consistency go a LONG way! I'm purchasing the Himalayan sea salt ghee as well, and purchasing even more of the vanilla bean as gifts for my fellow butter lovers. I'm a believer and am so happy to have found a product that I can enjoy so much and change out one of those that isn't as good for my health. I am very grateful I tried this awesome product!

This ghee is delicious! It smells like sugar cookies, or vanilla ice cream, but when you taste it the vanilla is subtle and the sweetness only comes from the ghee so it’s not overwhelming. It's very decadent so you really don't need much to be satisfied. I don’t find the price to be too high considering I’ll be using it a tbsp at a time and not every day. For $10 it’s definitely worth it to me. High quality and will last a while. My jar was full, not to the brim, but I don’t think it’s supposed to be (see photo). Most products you buy come with some room at the top, and I think it just seems more empty due to the design of the jar. Also, no air pockets! I do think they need to work on shipping though. It’s clear many people have had issues with this. My jar has a crack on the bottom (see photo) so I will be transferring 90% of the ghee to another jar and will lose 10% as I don’t want to take any chances with ingesting shards of glass. If it were shattered I would not consume it. Luckily there is just one crack. I hope they work on this so I can buy more!

Very good product, but I received the wrong flavor. Ordered vanilla and got garlic. I enjoy using it with vegetables and various recipes.

My favorite ghee! Love the vanilla flavor. High quality, highly recommended.

Oh my gosh, is this ghee or thick, amazing vanilla pudding? I have to physically restrain myself ten times a day from going over to the jar for a spoonful straight. I've been eating grassfed, organic ghee for a while now for the health benefits and I haven't found any scenario where I like it less than butter, and that's saying something because I've been told my butter usage is "inspirational", haha. It's still a fat so it should be used in moderation, but it's actually recommended by many health practitioners, including my own GP. This particular vanilla bean ghee is incredible as a substitute for cream in coffee or black tea and I also add it to my turmeric golden coconut milk at night and the creaminess it imparts is phenomenal! My family also loves it on toast with some ceylon cinnamon and it's so flavorful I don't even need the sprinkle of sugar you'd generally put on cinnamon toast. It's not sweet at all as the only added ingredient is vanilla bean, but it's so rich and full I don't ever miss the sweetness and feel better knowing I'm not eating unnecessary extra sugar. My one and only complaint is that they don't offer it in an organic option, but after looking up the company's butter sourcing I feel comfortable that it's still ethical and not overly laden with chemicals or pesticides. I don't recommend purchasing unless you're ready to be addicted. Yummm.
