Cha's Organics Ground True Cinnamon, 130g

Did you know that most of the “cinnamon” on the market is actually cassia (Cinnamomum cassia)? The more common and less expensive cousin of Ceylon (True) Cinnamon lacks the delicate flavour profile and natural sweetness that True Cinnamon offers.

True Cinnamon, native to Sri Lanka's biodiverse agriculture is harvested from the bark of the Cinnamomum zeylanicum tree on our organic farms. Cha’s Organics proudly offers only the highest quality Fairtrade certified True Cinnamon, grown by small-scale producers in Sri Lanka.

Most grocery stores carry cassia, which is less expensive to harvest and is darker in colour. Cassia expresses bitter notes during cooking. True Cinnamon is considerably softer in texture, sweeter in taste and lighter in colour. They also differ greatly in coumarin content and health benefits. True Cinnamon has a light flavour profile ideal for baking, sprinkling on top of drinks or in your morning superfood smoothies!
