Inside the jar
The story
Crack open a green cardamom pod and you'll know why it's called the Queen of Spices.
That sweet, floral aroma. That warm, refreshing fragrance. That unmistakable flavour that can turn an ordinary cup of chai into something far more special.
Imamdasta Green Cardamom is sourced from Idukki, Kerala, carefully selected for its beautiful natural aroma and rich flavour.
Because when it comes to cardamom, aroma is everything.
The Queen of Spices, Straight From Idukki.
Not all cardamom has the same fragrance. Some pods look green but barely smell of anything. We wanted the opposite.
We look for cardamom with a distinctive, naturally fragrant character — so when you open the pack or crush a pod, that beautiful aroma reaches you immediately.
Keep it whole for slow infusion. Crush it for a stronger release. Add it to chai, pulao, biryani or dessert. One pod can change the entire aroma of a dish.
The fragrance that makes people ask, “What did you add?” Cardamom has a special way of making food feel luxurious.
A simple chai becomes fragrant. Rice becomes aromatic. Kheer becomes richer in character. A homemade dessert suddenly smells like something from a special occasion.
That's why this little green pod deserves more than a corner in your spice box. It deserves to be noticed.

The flavour
Don't Just Add Cardamom. Release It.
Want a stronger aroma? Gently crush the pod or lightly split it before adding it to your recipe.
The moment the inner seeds meet the hot milk, tea, ghee or cooking liquid, their aroma begins to unfold.
And that's when you understand: the pod was never meant to be hidden.

Imamdasta Tip
Use the pod, not just the seeds.
- 01
For chai and desserts, lightly crush the whole cardamom pod before adding it.
- 02
For biryani and pulao, add it whole with the other whole spices and let it slowly release its aroma.
- 03
Don't crush it too early and leave it sitting around.
Freshly crushed cardamom releases a much more beautiful fragrance.
