100% pure and natural essential oil obtained by steam distillation of the seeds of Elettaria Cardamomum. Cardamom is a very sharp herbaceous plant with a rhizome like ginger and turmeric. It is native to the Malabar Coast (South India). It was mainly used in India a millennium BC to be rediscovered in Europe in the 16th century thanks to the navigator Barbosa, companion of Magelan. The whitish flowers of this plant give rise to a long, oval fruit filled with small dark brown seeds which alone are aromatic. As part of the composition of curry and pepper, it is widely used all over the world: to flavor tea in the Arab world or in Asia and coffee in Africa or as a perfume in Italy.
