The full story
Cardamom is judged on the seed, not the shell. Pods dried too hot or too fast leave the seeds pale, dry and rattling — the aroma has already gone. Ours are shade-cured slowly at low heat so the seeds stay dark, slightly tacky, and heavy with cineole.
Grown at 900–1200 metres in the Idukki hills, where cool nights stretch the ripening window. We grade to 8mm and above and pack in light-blocking pouches, because cardamom fades faster in daylight than almost anything else in your cupboard.
Bruise a pod between your fingers before using it. If it doesn't perfume the whole room, it isn't ours.
How to use it
Chai, biryani and pulao, Scandinavian baking, coffee, poached stone fruit.
For whole spice, dry-toast in a pan over medium heat for 30–60 seconds until fragrant, then grind. Toasting wakes up the volatile oils and makes a noticeable difference to depth.
Storage
Keep the pouch sealed, away from light and heat — the cupboard above the hob is the worst place in most kitchens. Whole spice will hold for 18–24 months stored properly; ground spice is at its best within three months of the grind date printed on the back.
Delivery & returns
Orders placed before 2pm ship the same working day. Standard delivery is 2–4 working days, free on orders over ₹799 and ₹59 below that.
If a spice isn’t what you hoped, tell us within 30 days and we’ll refund it — opened pouches included. We’d rather know.
