Ceylon cinnamon – the real and aromatic cinnamon from Sri Lanka
Ceylon cinnamon, also known as “true cinnamon,” originates from Sri Lanka, where it is cultivated in the tropical climate around Ceylon. The cinnamon is extracted from the innermost bark of the evergreen cinnamon tree, which can grow up to 15 meters tall.
After harvest, the bark is carefully loosened, cut free, and dried. During drying, it naturally curls into the characteristic, fine quills – hence the name canna, which means “small tubes” in Latin. The result is a delicate and aromatic cinnamon with a complex fragrance and mild warmth.
Flavor and aroma profile
- Aroma of cinnamon, balsamic notes, and green notes
- Taste: sweetish and slightly pungent with clean, warm cinnamon facets
- Origin: Ceylon, Sri Lanka
Use
- Suitable for desserts, baking, compotes, and hot drinks
- Can be used in marinades and sauces for a rounded sweetness
- Ideal in both classic and modern kitchens
Fun facts
In ancient times, the Egyptians used cinnamon for embalming and religious rituals
Queen Hatshepsut sent an expedition to the “Land of Punt” (now Ethiopia) to find cinnamon – the beginning of the historic spice routes
The compound that gives the characteristic taste and aroma is called cinnamaldehyde
Ceylon cinnamon is known for its fine structure and complex aroma – a true classic that elevates both sweet and savory dishes with its elegant warmth.
