Cinnamon is one of the world’s oldest and most popular spices; it is used in cuisines around the world and is the most important “sweet spice.”

There are two kinds of cinnamon: Ceylon cinnamon and Cassia. Ceylon cinnamon (sometimes called “true” cinnamon) is native to Sri Lanka. It is a pale tan color and has an exceptionally mild flavor; very pleasant, but so delicate that it seems weak to the North American palate. Most of the Ceylon cinnamon imported into the United States is re-exported to Mexico. Almost all of what we in North America call “cinnamon” is actually Cassia, which has a more intense flavor. Watkins purchases the best cinnamon available on the market … specifically, Korintje Cassia. When the cinnamon is received, it is inspected for cleanliness and freedom from foreign matter before being ground. It is our strict attention to detail that makes our cinnamon the very best available.

Watkins Cinnamon offers:

Korintje Cassia: The strongest in flavor; Watkins Cinnamon contains a minimum of 2% essential cinnamon oil; many others on the market contain 1 to 2%, and inferior brands have as low as .5%.
Strict quality control: Each shipment is tested upon arrival for quality.
Carefully ground and sifted: To assure uniform particle size and quality.

Did you know that the cinnamon is credited with stimulating romance, according to the Smell & Taste Treatment Center?

Cinnamon may also help to balance blood sugar levels in people suffering from Diabetes. Preliminary studies by the Agricultural Research Service of the US Dept. of Agriculture suggest that a teaspoon of cinnamon on oatmeal or other foods make cells more responsive to insulin, helping to balance blood sugar. (Of course, diabetics should inform their doctors and monitor blood sugar levels.)

Besides helping to balance blood sugar levels, cinnamon also slows the spoilage of foods and helps to reduce the presence of E.coli. (Foods must still be cooked to prevent food-borne illness.)
