Black Cardamom in Global Trade: Everything You Need To Know

Also known as Large Cardamom (badi elaichi), Black Cardamom is a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to the family of Zingiberaceae. These thrive in forested, high-altitude (800–2000 m) regions. For instance, the two primary species of Black Cardamom - Amomum subulatum and Amomum tsao-ko are grown in China and Nepal, respectively. Unlike green cardamom, it is rarely used in sweet dishes because its smoky and camphor-like flavor makes it a perfect spice to blend Indian and Southeast Asian cuisines like Biryani, Pulao, and rich meat curries. The global trade of black cardamom is driven by its uses in various medicinal systems like Ayurvedic, Unani, and Chinese. This is because black cardamom has many cardioprotective, antimicrobial, hepatoprotective, and anti-inflammatory properties. Not just that, it is used in making digestive teas, mouth fresheners, and air fresheners - further broadening its relevance across multiple industries. 


What Are the Commonly Traded Types of Black Cardamom in Global Markets?

A Look into Global Black Cardamom Market Trends: Key Insights for Export Import

To connect with a larger number of black cardamom buyers, it is important to target the right markets. Here are some crucial data of the global market of black cardamom, which can make a difference for exporters:


Factors increasing the global trade of Black Cardamom:


  • Large Cardamom’s GI tag of Sikkim (India): This Geographical Indication tag was awarded to Sikkim in 2015, which recognizes the unique characteristics of Sikkim's large cardamom (locally called badi elaichi in India). The unique aroma, flavor, and quality of these cardamoms are due to the agro-climatic conditions and traditional cultivation methods of this region. This GI tag increases the demand for Sikkim large cardamoms in the global market, attracting a lot of black cardamom buyers or black cardamom spice buyers from multiple countries. 


  • Expanding applications in various industries: The health benefits of black cardamom make it a great ingredient to be used in food & beverages, pharmaceuticals, and nutraceuticals. It stimulates the digestive system and regulates stomach acid. You will be surprised to know it is also used in Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine to treat respiratory disorders like asthma and bronchitis. Its applications are further extended to preserving meat and in nutraceutical products that aim at boosting the immune system. 


  • Growth in cosmetic and personal care products: Given the black cardamom's strong and aromatic fragrance, it is widely used in the cosmetic and perfume industry. Several soaps, colognes, and lotions are made from black cardamom. And as antibacterial properties help a lot in acne and other skin conditions, it is used as a primary ingredient in skincare products (serums, moisturizers, sunscreen, etc).


  • Cultural and seasonal demand: During the holy month of Ramzan, there is an increased consumption of black cardamom in countries with Muslim-majority populations like Pakistan, Indonesia, Bangladesh, and other Middle Eastern countries. In these seasons, dishes like Korma, Pulao, Biryani, and multiple desserts are prepared, and black cardamom remains a consistent ingredient in all of them. This seasonal demand also influences the black cardamom 1 kg price. To meet this huge demand, the world exports a lot of black cardamom from Nepal and Bhutan. 


  • Distinct production methods in Nepal: Till now, we have seen how Nepal produces some of the best quality black cardamom for the world. That is possible because of the unique furnace drying technique (locally known as "Kuro kulo") used by Nepal. They dry their large cardamom using a centuries-old furnace and leave them for days in large drying chambers where wood fire is maintained at a controlled temperature. This technique lets them enhance the smoky and earthy aroma of black cardamom and adds subtle hints of resin and wood to it.
