🌿 Ceylon Cinnamon – The True Cinnamon of Sri Lanka 

🪵 A Legendary Spice from the Island of Serendipity

Sri Lanka — once known as Serendib, the land of unexpected treasures — is the only place where True Cinnamon grows natively. Known scientifically as Cinnamomum verum, and locally as Kurundu, this rare spice is hand-harvested from the inner bark of the cinnamon tree. It takes skill, patience, and tradition to gently peel and roll the bark into the elegant quills that set Ceylon Cinnamon apart.

Its unique taste — delicate, citrusy, mildly sweet — has made it a favorite in gourmet kitchens and healing traditions worldwide. Where cassia cinnamon is hard and pungent, Ceylon Cinnamon is soft, golden, and full of gentle warmth.

For centuries, kings, queens, traders, and healers have sought this golden bark. Today, it’s yours to enjoy — naturally harvested, hand-rolled, and packed with care from the hills and coasts of Sri Lanka.
