Cinnamomum verum simply translates to "true cinnamon" in Latin. Similarly Cinnamomum Zeylanicum translates to Ceylon the native country of true Cinnamon. Cinnamoum Verum or Ceylon Cinnamon has gained increased recognition for its health benefits, whilst having 1250 times less coumarin than Cassia.

Five reasons why you should insist on Cinnamomum Verum.

1.  Cinnamomum Verum has the lowest Coumarin content

Cassia which is sold as Cinnamon in the USA has more than 1250 times more Coumarin than Cinnamoum Zeylanicum.

What is Coumarin ?

Coumarin is a flavoring which is found in high concentrations in “Cassia” .Relatively small amounts of Coumarin can damage the liver of particularly sensitive individuals. 

Ceylon Cinnamon only contains very low levels of Coumarin (0.004%) which is considered safe for consumption. By contrast, “Cassia” contains high levels of Coumarin ( 5%) and large amounts of this cinnamon should not, therefore, be consumed.

2.  Cinnamomum Verum is  free of chemicals and pesticides.

Our Cinnamomum Verum is grown free of chemicals and pesticides.

3. Cinnamomum Verum is much sweeter than Cassia.

Ceylon Cinnamon is much sweeter than “Cassia”, hence you could reduce on the sugar in all your recipes. Ceylon Cinnamon has a more refined taste than the harsh taste of “Cassia”.
