Not just today but history also has experienced the flavor of cumin during the Roman Empire and in the ancient India where cumin has its mention as the sugandhan "well-smelling". Cumin is a very popular spice in Western to Central Asia (Near and Middle East); in central and South America along with Burma, India, Indonesia.
