化学的特性
Cardamom oil is obtained by steam distillation of the seeds of Elettaria cardamomum
(L.) Maton (Zingiberaceae). It is a colorless or very pale yellow liquid
with an aromatic, penetrating, slightly camphoraceous odor and a persistent, pungent,
strongly aromatic taste. It is produced from cultivated or wild plants in the
mountainous regions of Southern India (20 t/yr) and in Guatemala (10 t/yr).

The major components of cardamom oil are 1,8-cineole (23–33%/27–35%)
and α-terpinyl acetate (32–42%/35–45%). Trace constituents such as unsaturated
aliphatic aldehydes may be important for the typical aroma.
Cardamomoil is used primarily for seasoning foods, in alcoholic beverages, and,
in small dosages, also occasionally in perfumery.
