Cinnamon has been used as a flavoring agent and medicinal for centuries, especially in Asia. The presence of coumarin, however, can be problematic in high doses or in certain individuals with a history of liver disease.
Cinnamomum cassia, otherwise known as Chinese cinnamon, contains less volatile oil and therefore less coumarin than other varieties, but has a sweeter flavor.
Size can vary between 6" and 2 3/4".
Botanical Name:Cinnamomum burmanii
Origin:Indonesia
Sold by the ounce.
