DESTRIPTION:
The cinnamon is a spice from the dried bark of cinnamon trees.
It comes ground as a typical brown powder or as a cinnamon stick in the trade.

A distinction is made between the genuine cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) from Sri Lanka and the unhealthy somewhat sharper spicy cassia cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia) from China, which is also cultivated in Indonesia, Vietnam and other countries.

The genuine Ceylon cinnamon can be seen in the fact that the rod consists of 6 to 10 thinly thinned inner cores, while in Cassia cinnamon a relatively thick bark layer is rolled into a small roll.

The Cassia cinnamon found already about 3000 years BC in China. The Ceylon or true cinnamon was brought to Europe by Vasco da Gama from Ceylon in 1502 and was one of the most expensive spices.


DETAILS:
If you want to keep Cinnamon for a longer period it should be stored in stick form rather than powder. Cinnamon sticks can be used for a long time as they only release their flavor very slowly. Only grind the cinnamon sticks when in use.

USE OF CINNAMON:
Cinnamon is used as a spice for the aromatization of tea and alcohol (mulled wine), for fruit-cakes, sweets and pastries, and in Indian cuisine also for meat dishes.
Cinnamon is also used in the perfume industry.
Then the cinnamon stick can also be burned like an incense stick, releasing the well-known floral smell of cinnamon.


NOTES ON HEALTH:
Especially the cheaper Cassia cinnamon contains coumarin, this is considered as harmful to health. Cassia cinnamon is almost exclusively used in finished products. Coumarin can cause headache, liver damage and high doses of cancer.
The coumarin content of both cinnamon varieties differs considerably: whereas in cassia cinnamon it is about 2 g coumarin per kg, which is considered a health risk, the same amount of Ceylon cinnamon contains only 0.02 g of coumarin which is safe.

The Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) in Germany recommends that children should not take more than 5 cinnamon stars (finished product with cassia cinnamon) per day. For domestic use, it is recommended to use Ceylon cinnamon.
 
ORIGIN:
Our Alba Grade cinnamon which is the top-grade comes directly from the farms and production sites in Sri Lanka.
Take care: If Ceylon cinnamon sticks are offered cheaper than our cinnamon, it cannot come from Sri Lanka or is at most of the simplest Hamburg quality.

PHOTOS:
Since the cinnamon trees are different, the sticks sent somestimes do not match the photos.
