Ceylon Cinnamon
Ceylon cinnamon, often called 'true cinnamon,' is a premium spice derived from the inner bark of *Cinnamomum verum* trees native to Sri Lanka. Unlike the more common Cassia variety, it features a delicate, layered texture and a subtly sweet, floral-citrus flavor with significantly lower coumarin levels—a compound of concern for liver health in high doses. This aromatic spice is prized in both sweet and savory dishes, particularly in baking and tea blends, where its refined flavor profile shines.
