Cardamoms
Cardamom, often referred to as the "Queen of Spices", is one of the most aromatic and valued spices globally. It is native to the Indian subcontinent and Indonesia. Its unique flavor and health benefits make it a vital ingredient in both culinary and medicinal practices. Green cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum) is the most commonly used variety, though black cardamom is also popular for its smoky flavor.
Cardamom is cultivated in tropical regions with high humidity and elevation, particularly in southern India (Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu), Guatemala, and Sri Lanka. India and Guatemala are among the largest producers and exporters of cardamom worldwide.
It is harvested manually when the pods ripen and then dried to preserve their essential oils. Cardamom is used whole or ground and is a staple in spice mixes, sweets, teas, and savory dishes across many cultures.

From Forest Floor to Global Spice Racks – The Journey of Cardamom
Cardamom grows best in forested tropical areas, under shade with high rainfall. The plants take about 2-3 years to start bearing fruit. The green pods are hand-harvested when ripe, then cured either through sun-drying or drying chambers to preserve quality.
Post-harvest, the pods are cleaned, graded based on size and color, and packaged with care. Proper storage is essential to avoid loss of aroma and flavor — which is why we use humidity-controlled environments and food-grade materials.
Whether it's for culinary excellence or natural wellness, cardamom’s journey from plantation to packaging is a blend of traditional expertise and modern techniques — making every pod truly premium.
