Ceylon Cinnamon, Shop True Ceylon Cinnamon Sticks Online
Sri Lankan cinnamon, or Ceylon cinnamon, is often referred to by the monikers true cinnamon and sweet cinnamon because of the historical presence and flavor profile that differs from the more common, Cassia cinnamon. While of the same genus, Cinnamomum, cassia bark. has a much harsher taste than its (in our opinion, far superior) Ceylon cousin. For the sake of trade and purchase today, all species are considered cinnamon, but Ceylon Cinnamon, in its original Latin origins, true cinnamon is the scientific literal translation of cinnamon bark derived from the Cinnamomum Verum tree from which Ceylon cinnamon is derived. Sri Lankan Ceylon cinnamon sticks, while less common and more expensive, are favored by Pastry Chefs in Europe for their soft, delicate, and clean cinnamon flavor. A large difference between Ceylon cinnamon quills and Cassia cinnamon sticks is that the Ceylon variety is filled like a fine cigar. The flesh is soft and brittle and easily broken by hand, whereas Cassia cinnamon or Cassia bark is hardier and woodier and do not break easily. This particular organic inspired cinnamon quills come from the fertile soils of Sri Lankan is a C5-special grade grown using natural and organic practices..

The growing and harvesting process of Ceylon cinnamon is very unique. The various stages of the process are: harvesting, peeling, rolling and drying, cutting and grading, and packaging. First a small Sri Lankan cinnamon tree, an evergreen tree in the laurel family, is grown and nurtured for about 2 years. The Sri Lankan cinnamon tree is then chopped down to a stump. After a short time, dozens of small shoots spring up from the stump. The shoots are allowed to mature and thicken to about two inches in diameter before being cut down. After being cut down, the green outer bark is then shaved and peeled off. The inner bark is then sliced, and struck evenly with specialized tools. The cinnamon bark is peeled in layers from the heart of the wood. This inner bark is removed in large sheets generally several feet in length or more, cut into strips, and air-dried. These strips are then curled into quills of cinnamon that are further dried in ovens or by baking outside under the sun. After achieving a sufficient "tan", the quills are cut, graded and sent on their way around the world, where they are prized by bakers, culinary enthusiasts, and holistic healers.

- Saigon cinnamon is a species of Cassia cinnamon with a stronger flavor and aroma. Saigon cinnamon has a high concentration of oils and a more pungent flavor than Ceylon cinnamon.
- Unlike Cassia cinnamon, Ceylon cinnamon has a very low amount of coumarin. This amount makes frequent consumption of Ceylon cinnamon much safer. It has been safely used in doses of 0.5-3 grams daily for up to 6 months. However, it can be unsafe to consume in larger amounts or when used long-term
- Roughly 4-5 sticks +- depending on the grade of cinnamon and length. Each stick has natural variations in size, shape, and uniformity, so you should not take this number literally, as one ounce is a weighted measure and has nothing to do with a count. It is solely sold by weight.
