Premium Ceylon Cinnamon Sticks - Organic, True Cinnamon from Sri Lanka

The Differences between Cinnamon and Real Cinnamon

Most people are unaware that cinnamon comes in two primary forms – Ceylon cinnamon and Cassia cinnamon. In fact, the Cassia variety is more commonly found in the market and is often simply referred to as "cinnamon."

Ceylon cinnamon, also known as "true cinnamon," has a lighter color and smoother texture compared to Cassia cinnamon. Its flavor is more delicate and slightly sweeter. Ceylon cinnamon sticks are also softer and more crumbly than their Cassia counterparts.

One of the key differences between the two is the coumarin content. Ceylon cinnamon contains significantly less coumarin (less than 0.004%) compared to Cassia cinnamon. Coumarin is a naturally occurring compound in cinnamon that can be harmful in large quantities.

Ceylon cinnamon is primarily produced in Sri Lanka, formerly known as Ceylon. In contrast, Cassia cinnamon is a blend of various cinnamon types, often originating from China, India, Indonesia, and Vietnam.

The Ceylon Cinnamon Advantage

Ceylon cinnamon, or "true cinnamon," is a highly valued culinary and medicinal spice with a delicate, mildly sweet flavor. It is considered a safer and higher-quality option compared to Cassia cinnamon due to its lower coumarin content.

Coumarin is a natural compound in cinnamon that can potentially cause health issues with excessive consumption. Ceylon cinnamon's coumarin levels are significantly lower, making it a much safer choice.

Ceylon cinnamon is native to Sri Lanka, formerly known as Ceylon. The country gained independence from the British in 1948 and later became a republic within the Commonwealth in 1972, changing its name to Sri Lanka.
