Premium Guatemalan green cardamom from ArgoNova
Quality characteristics

What defines high-quality Guatemalan cardamom

Premium cardamom is evaluated by colour, pod fullness, size consistency, curing, moisture, seed quality and natural aroma.

Quality characteristics of Guatemalan cardamom
1

Vibrant Green Colour

Premium pods retain a deep, uniform olive-green colour, indicating careful harvesting and curing intended to preserve natural appearance and essential oils.

2

Full and Plump Pods

High-quality pods are firm, rigid and tightly sealed, with aromatic dark seeds inside rather than excessive empty or lightweight pods.

3

Careful Size Sorting

Export lots are cleaned and sorted into commercial size bands such as 6–7 mm, 7–8 mm and 8 mm+, subject to the approved specification.

4

Low Moisture and Proper Curing

Controlled drying and proper curing help preserve freshness and reduce the risk of mould, discoloration and deterioration during storage and transit.

5

Strong Aroma and Rich Flavour

Oil-rich seeds provide the warm, sweet and slightly citrus-like aroma valued in tea, coffee, desserts, spice blends and traditional cooking.
