Black Cardamom (Alaichi)

Grown in the cool, shaded valleys of Eastern Nepal, our Black Cardamom is a prized gem among Himalayan spices. Sourced directly from local farming communities, these large, dark pods are dried over traditional wood fires, giving them a distinct smoky aroma.

Often referred to as the “Queen of Spices,” our cardamom is highly sought after in Asian cuisines. With a deep, potent flavor profile that lingers on the palate, it is an essential ingredient for authentic garam masalas, slow-cooked meats, and rich stews.
