Discover Organic Ceylon Cinnamon: The True Cinnamon
Ceylon Cinnamon, known as "true cinnamon," is famous around the world for its mild taste, making it a popular choice for buyers seeking high-quality organic cinnamon. Whether you're looking for organic cinnamon powder, sticks, or tea, Ceylon Cinnamon from Sri Lanka offers a pure, flavorful experience.
True Cinnamon vs. Cassia: What's the Difference?
There are two main types of cinnamon: true cinnamon and Cassia. Ceylon Cinnamon, especially in its organic form, is lighter in color, softer in texture, and has a sweet, delicate flavor. Cassia Cinnamon, which is more common, is darker, harder, and has a stronger, spicier taste. Many people prefer organic Ceylon cinnamon because it’s healthier, containing less coumarin, a substance that can be harmful if consumed in large amounts.
What Makes Ceylon Cinnamon Special?
Organic Ceylon Cinnamon comes from Sri Lanka, where it has been grown for hundreds of years, known for its unique flavor and high quality. The cinnamon, including organic cinnamon bark, is harvested by hand, using traditional methods passed down through generations. Buying organic cinnamon from Sri Lanka ensures that you’re getting the best cinnamon in the world.
PGI Cinnamon refers to Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) cinnamon, a designation that ensures a specific type of cinnamon is recognized as originating from a particular geographical area, giving it unique qualities and a reputation associated with that location. It is a historical significance, that Sri Lanka received its first ever Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) certification when the European Union (EU) Commission on 02nd February 2022 granted PGI status to Ceylon Cinnamon.
