Cardamom was first introduced to Guatemala in 1914, as the soil content, tropical moisture, altitude and slope were seen as perfect growing conditions for farmers. Guatemala cultivates Elettaria cardamomum, which is native to the Malabar Coast of India. Guatemala has been the largest exporter of Green Cardamom since the first World War followed by India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Papua New Guinea and Tanzania.
