🧪 Ingredients
Cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum) is a herbaceous perennial plant belonging to the ginger family (Zingiberaceae). Native to the tropical forests of Southern India, Sri Lanka, and Southeast Asia, this spice is one of the oldest and most valued in the world. The plant produces pods containing small aromatic seeds, from which the precious essential oil is extracted. Oshadhi obtains its Cardamom essential oil from organic farms in Guatemala, a country that has become one of the leading global producers. The extraction method used is low-pressure steam distillation. This delicate and slow process is crucial to preserve the integrity of the plant's volatile components, ensuring an essential oil of the highest quality with its full and balanced aromatic profile.
