Details

In the Cardamom Hills of southern India, wild cardamom bushes have grown for some 2000 years. They flourish in rainforests and in some cases can grow to eighteen feet tall. Guatemala is now the chief exporter of the highest quality cardamom pods. Cardamom has a strong, pungent aroma and a flowery, almost eucalyptus type flavor. There are 17 to 20 tiny inner seeds in each peanut sized pod.

In the Bedouin culture, the cardamom would be put on display for guest to see. If the appearance of the pods was plump and blemish free it showed great esteem and respect for the guest.

Here at Savory Spice Shop we like to put a few green pods in our coffee grounds before brewing for a subtle, Arabian brew.

We offer the highest quality cardamom pods from Guatamala.

What is Organically Sourced?

Products with the "Organically Sourced" designation have been grown and cleaned organically. Once these products are received by our warehouse in Denver and opened to be repackaged into Savory Spice jars, they no longer qualify as organically certified, but the methods for producing them are in line with organic standards. Products that are Organically Sourced will include "ORG-S" on the front of the label.
