There are two cinnamons, and most people have only ever had one. Cassia is the loud one β€” bold, everywhere, the cinnamon of your childhood. Ceylon is quieter. Sweeter in a different way. True cinnamon, if you want to get technical about it, and worth knowing the difference.

There's a health reason too, not just a flavor one. Cassia carries more coumarin, a compound that in high doses isn't kind to your liver. Ceylon carries almost none. If you eat cinnamon daily β€” and some people do β€” that difference actually matters.

We source ours from Sri Lanka. Certified organic. Tested against limits stricter than the industry sets for itself, because cinnamon is one of the spices most likely to be hiding something it shouldn't.

Storage and Shelf Life

Storage: To maximize freshness, store in a dark airtight container in a cool dry place. Once the spice is ground, flavor deteriorates with exposure to light, heat, air, humidity and time. Here are rules of thumb about the shelf life of spices and herbs >

NOTE: The plastic refill bags are not intended for long-term storage of your spices. Due to the porous nature of plastic, the essential oils that are released when a spice is ground, may react with the plastic and/or labelling inks over time.

Refill bags contain the same amount of spice as in our small glass jars. When they arrive, simply snip the corner of your bag, refill your original Smith & Truslow spice jar, apply the new label, and recycle the bag.
