Cardamom

Matogrosso Exports is a trusted B2B supplier of premium Cardamom, sourcing directly from established growing regions to serve international buyers in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries. Our long-standing relationships with producers allow us to offer high-quality spices at competitive wholesale prices, with consistent supply year-round.

Varieties and Specifications

We offer two primary types of cardamom: Green Cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum), prized for its sweet, floral, and slightly minty flavor; and Black Cardamom (Amomum subulatum), known for its bold, smoky, and camphor-like aroma. Green cardamom is available in various grades including Alleppey Green, Malabar, and Mysore, each with distinct size, color, and oil content. Black cardamom is typically graded by size and color consistency. Our products are processed to meet strict quality standards, with a maximum moisture content of 10% and carefully controlled drying and cleaning procedures to preserve essential oils and aromatic compounds.

Applications

Cardamom is an essential ingredient in cuisines around the world. It is a key component in South Asian curry blends, spice mixes like garam masala, and Middle Eastern rice dishes. In Scandinavian baking, it is used extensively in pastries and breads. Beyond the kitchen, cardamom is prized in chai tea, Turkish coffee, and as a natural flavoring agent in confectionery, beverages, and liqueurs. The pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries value it for its digestive, carminative, and aromatic properties. Its versatility makes it a staple in any spice procurement portfolio.

Bulk Supply and Packaging

We supply cardamom in standard export packaging: 25 kg and 50 kg multi-layer kraft paper bags with inner food-grade polyethylene liners to protect moisture and preserve flavor. Flexible packaging options are available depending on the destination and customer requirements, including smaller retail-ready packs for distribution. Our logistics team coordinates shipments via sea and air to ensure timely arrival and minimal transit damage. We work with buyers to arrange consolidated shipments for cost efficiency.

Quality and Processing

Every batch of cardamom undergoes rigorous quality checks at origin. The spice is harvested at the optimal stage of maturity, then dried under controlled conditions to maintain its bright green or dark brown color and rich aroma. Sorting and grading are performed manually and mechanically to ensure uniform size and remove defects. Our quality assurance protocols comply with international phytosanitary standards, providing buyers with full documentation for import clearance.
