Ceylon Cinnamon

Ceylon cinnamon, also known as “True Cinnamon” or Cinnamomum verum, is derived from the inner bark of the Cinnamomum tree native to Sri Lanka. It has a delicate, sweet, and mildly spicy flavor, distinct from the stronger and spicier Cassia cinnamon. Ceylon cinnamon is often preferred for its superior taste, health benefits, and lower coumarin content.
