Cinnamon Verum
Our Cinnamon Verum (aka Ceylon cinnamon or “true” cinnamon) is complex, herbal and a little savory, with notes of pine, citrus peel and sea salt. It comes from Zanzibar, where our partner farmers harvest the inner bark of the cinnamon tree, then dry and grind it. It’s perfect for savory dishes like tomato sauces, stews, chili and barbecue rubs. It’s often used in Mexican and Southeast Asian cooking, and the flavor blooms beautifully when it’s heated!
If you’re looking for a more familiar but extra-sweet and spicy cinnamon, you might like our Royal Cinnamon as well.Â
We regularly test our cinnamon for lead in an internationally accredited food safety testing lab, and it is always significantly below the lead limits of 1 ppm. Please contact us for more details on our testing procedures for cinnamon and other spices.
