Ceylon Cinnamon (also called Sweet or True Cinnamon) is produced mostly in Sri Lanka and Southern India. It has a special place in Ayurvedic practices and has become well known to western herbalists.
This is not Cassia - the cinnamon you probably bake with if you're from North America with the cinnamon bun flavour we love. By contrast, Ceylon Cinnamon tastes similar with a much gentler flavour; warm, calming, floral and subtle. It's a versatile spice, used as an aromatic condiment and ingredients in many dishes from Europe and India - from confections to curries to beverages. Bon apetit!
