CARDAMOM SEED
Elettaria cardamomum Guatemala, Organic, Seeds, steam distilled
It's hard to believe that this is a single oil, the aroma is so complex. Physically, cardamom is recommended for digestive problems and nausea. It is also said to be stimulating to the lungs, helpful for easing coughs and bronchitis. Emotionally, it is said to be uplifting and refreshing, but more gently so than the citrus oils, for example. I suspect it would blend well with many of the citrus oils, with the conifers (especially our cypress tip oil). I want to try it with our new Frankincense. mmmmmmmm Frankincense, Cardamon, and just a touch of rose. ah, yes!
Culinary hint: Add just a drop to the coffee filter when brewing a pot of after dinner coffee...or morning coffee for that matter. YUMMMM!
