Yes, Cardamom has fancy colour.

There are Natural Green colours, fancy colours, and Yellowish Green.

Colour is the most crucial aspect to consider while buying cardamom. Fresh cardamoms are plump and olive or green in colour.

However, if the cardamom pods look too green, there may be artificial colours used to make them seem fresh. If they look yellowish, they may either be too old or have been dried wrongly.

Rub cardamom pods between your fingers to see if there is any colour being released. If not, you are good to go!
