Ceylon Green Cardamom is cultivated in the misty highlands above 1,000 meters, particularly in the Knuckles Mountain Range and surrounding areas. Grown for over 400 years, this aromatic spice thrives in the consistent cloud cover and high humidity of the hill country.

The delicate green pods are hand-picked at just the right stage of maturity, typically when they are three-quarters ripe, then carefully dried using traditional methods to preserve their vibrant color and potent essential oils. NextPort International works closely with small-scale farmers in these highland regions, many of whom have been cultivating cardamom for generations using sustainable agroforestry practices. Our processing facilities ensure that each pod retains its plump appearance and rich oil content, while our quality assurance protocols guarantee consistent grading and freedom from defects, delivering the premium Ceylon cardamom that spice traders and culinary professionals recognize for its superior quality.
