Ceylon cinnamon or cinnamomum zeylanicum is a very special spice with a rich, sweet taste that transports you to foreign places. It has been prized for its medicinal properties for thousands of years due to its cinnamaldehyde content. Ceylon cinnamon is a purer form and has more potent properties. The inner bark is gently dried with warm air and it naturally curls into quills. Cinnamon sticks go really well in slow cook recipes such as tagines.
