Cardamom Essential Oil is obtained by steam distillation of carefully selected seeds of Elettaria cardamomum, sourced from premium cardamom-growing regions of South India, including Kerala and Tamil Nadu. The oil captures the characteristic sweet, fresh, and slightly camphoraceous aroma profile of green cardamom, delivering concentrated flavour and fragrance performance.
The oil is typically a clear to pale yellow liquid with a warm, sweet-spicy top note and fresh aromatic undertones. It is valued for its natural volatile composition, particularly its cineole and terpene profile, making it suitable for beverages, confectionery, dairy applications, flavour systems, nutraceutical formulations, and fragrance applications where clean, sweet-spicy aromatic impact is required.
Each batch is produced under controlled distillation conditions and tested to meet defined limits for heavy metals and residual contaminants, in line with international standards. The product is free from synthetic additives, and compliant with relevant US and EU regulations for natural flavour preparations.
Packaging formats, density specifications, and GC profile parameters can be customized based on buyer requirements.
