Shade-Dried, Hand-Rolled, Unhurried
The farm sits atop a mountainous hamlet in Ratnapura District, undisturbed & pristine.
As you look farther, the sight of lush & evergreen True Cinnamon trees merges with forest land, with indigenous King Coconut trees (known as Thæmbili) being the only obstruction to the eye. From a distant, the synchronised movements of skilled artisans scraping & peeling delicate cinnamon barks sound like a symphony. Tender barks are harvested early morning, the outer bark is gently scraped, hand-peeled & elegantly rolled into quills ~ nothing less than a piece of art we’d say ~ by craftsmen & women using age-old traditions that have been passed on for generations. The quills are slow dried under the shade, naturally.

I make a true cinnamon, turmeric, ginger and coconut juice smoothie every morning. Kandy Heirloom Cinnamon is my choice because it is true cinnamon. The delicate distinctive taste of true cinnamon from Kandy Heirloom Cinnamon sets it aside from Cassia Cinnamon. I drink a true cinnamon beverage every day because of it’s health benefits for people who want to protect themselves from the effects of free radicals and the sugar in our diet. Kandy Heirloom Cinnamon is always available for delivery when I place my order.
This cinnamon is another level from the cinnamon I had before. It seems to be more tender and has a very subtle taste, and thus it is better used in recipes where you want to emphasize the cinnamon taste so that you can sense the complexity and subtlety of it. It's not just a spice!
One of my favourite spices is cinnamon.
I am loving this cinnamon from Food Of God's, just everything about it.
I love adding it to my porridge, milkshakes. I love breaking a piece and chewing it after my lunch, dinner meals, in aiding with my digestion.
