Cardamom Green Pod

The “queen of spices,” our Green Cardamom is cultivated organically in Guatemala, where the pods are picked by hand just as each ripens between September and early December. Firewood-fueled dryers reduce their moisture content at an optimum temperature so that the pods retain their dark green, lustrous color. The highly aromatic brown-black seeds have a delicately sweet, floral flavor, slightly citrusy with notes of eucalyptus, mint and black pepper.
