Enjoy the strong aromatic taste of Cardamom from Pipe Dream! Cardamom has a herbal, spicy citrusy flavor profile that pairs well with other aromatic spice and citrus flavors. Original and peculiar taste. Cardamom has a strong, unique taste, with an intensely aromatic, resinous fragrance. Black cardamom has a distinctly more smokey, though not bitter, aroma, with a coolness some consider similar to ginger. Cardamom is one of the oldest spices in the world, and the most popular spice in ancient Rome was probably cardamom.
