Vanilla is one of the most expensive spices. The reason for this lies in its complicated cultivation. Vanilla flowers do not pollinate themselves, which means they must be pollinated manually. This process requires a lot of effort and time. Additionally, vanilla requires a tropical and humid climate to thrive. This means its production is limited to a few regions of the world, such as Madagascar, Indonesia, and Mexico.
