Ceylon Cinnamon Leaves

Cinnamon Leaves from Ceylon

– Origin: Sourced directly from the lush, fertile lands of Sri Lanka, home to the true cinnamon tree, *Cinnamomum verum (also known as Cinnamomum zeylanicum).
– Appearance: These leaves are medium-sized, elongated, slender, and oval to lanceolate in shape, tapering to a point. They are leathery with a shiny green surface when fresh, turning to a matte olive color when dried. Each leaf has a prominent central light green vein.
– Aroma and Flavor: Infused with the delicate essence of cinnamon, these leaves offer a slightly sweeter and more nuanced flavor compared to traditional bay leaves. They are prized for their warm, woody fragrance and a subtle sweetness that enhances culinary creations.

Culinary Uses:
– Cooking: Ideal for infusing savory dishes like stews, curries, and broths, or adding depth to rice and noodle dishes. They can also be used in baking for a unique twist on traditional recipes.
– Beverages: Perfect for crafting aromatic cinnamon tea or as an ingredient in cocktails, enhancing both flavor and scent.

Health and Aroma Benefits:
– Medicinal Uses: Traditionally used in herbal medicine for their phytonutrients, including eugenol for digestive health and cinnamaldehyde for its anti-inflammatory properties.
– Aromatherapy: The leaves can be used in potpourri or for steam inhalation, offering calming and invigorating benefits (always consult a healthcare professional before use for therapeutic purposes).

Packaging and Sustainability: Our leaves are dehydrated to preserve their essential oils, ensuring both quality and convenience. They are packaged to maintain freshness while minimizing environmental impact.
