While black pepper is called the king of spices, cardamom is given the title of queen of spices, partly because of its importance in the spice trade, but also because it is the second most expensive spice by weight, after saffron.

This cardamom grows under the cozy canopy of the Sri Lankan rainforest above the village of Pilimathalawa. Cardamom needs full shade, cool elevations and plenty of moisture.
It is not necessarily the size that determines whether the cardamom is good or not, but rather its green color, indicating whether the pods have been picked at the right time and are tenderly dried in the small ovens in the villages. Cardamom pods contain small seeds that should ideally be dark gray or black. White grains are an indication that the cardamom is too old.
