Cinnamon from Madagascar is also known as Ceylon cinnamon. It’s a type of cinnamon that contains less coumarin than Cassia cinnamon, which is grown in China & Southeast Asia. It is a rarer variety that’s considered more delicate and sweeter than other types of cinnamon.
There are various main sources of cinnamon; each has its own distinct characteristics and taste profile:
Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum): It is native to Sri Lanka. It is considered as the "true" cinnamon, it has a delicate, sweet, and warm taste with a subtle fruity fragrance. Its sticks are thin and light brown, with many fine layers that peel off very easily. Ceylon Cinnamon supplier also includes Madagascar, India & Seychelles.
Cassia cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia): It is considered to be the native to China, Vietnam, Indonesia, and other parts of Southeast Asia. It is more common and less expensive than Ceylon cinnamon. It has a stronger, spicier, and slightly bitter taste with a more strong smell. Its sticks are thicker and darker brown, with fewer layers.
Cinnamon has a long history of traditional uses for its health benefits, scientific evidence is still evolving. Here's a breakdown of the few potential benefits of cinnamon:
