The affinity between Ceylon and Cinnamon is so strong that the very botanical name of the spice - Cinnamomum Zeylanicum is derived from the island's former Latin name for Ceylon.
Why Ceylon Cinnamon Spice?
1. Ceylon Cinnamon Spice has the lowest Coumarin content
Cassia which is sold as Cinnamon in the USA has more than 1250 times more Coumarin than Ceylon Cinnamon.
What is Coumarin ? Coumarin is a flavouring which is found in high concentrations in “Cassia”. Relatively small amounts of Coumarin can severely damage the liver.
Ceylon Cinnamon Spice only contains very low levels of Coumarin (0.004%) which is considered safe for consumption. By contrast, “Cassia” contains much higher levels of Coumarin ( 5%) and even small amounts of this fake cinnamon should not, be consumed.
2. Dru Era Ceylon Cinnamon Spice is free of chemicals and pesticides.
Our Ceylon Cinnamon Spice is grown free of any chemicals and pesticides. Our cinnamon is grown using traditional growing methods which have been used for centuries.
3. Ceylon Cinnamon Spice is much sweeter and flavoursome than Cassia.
One of the main differences between Ceylon Cinnamon Spice and Cassia is that Cinnamon is much sweeter and has a delicate flavour than “Cassia”, hence you could reduce on the sugar (and the amount of Cinnamon needed) in all your recipes. Ceylon Cinnamon has a more refined taste and a smoother surface compared to that of Cassia, which tastes harsh , and has a grainy texture.
