The Story of Ceylon Cinnamon
Ceylon cinnamon, also known as true cinnamon, comes from Cinnamomum verum, a cinnamon species native to Sri Lanka.
Cinnamon has been valued since antiquity and appears in historical records going back thousands of years. Ceylon cinnamon became one of the island's most prized trade commodities, attracting merchants and later European powers seeking control of the spice trade. Historical accounts describe cinnamon as a luxury worthy of monarchs and rulers.
By the time European maritime trade expanded, cinnamon had become so commercially important that control of Sri Lanka's cinnamon-producing regions was a major strategic objective. The Portuguese, Dutch, and British all played roles in the island's cinnamon trade, while the Dutch later developed systematic commercial cultivation.
What makes Ceylon cinnamon visually distinctive is its structure. Instead of the thick, hard bark commonly associated with cassia cinnamon, true Ceylon cinnamon is made from thin inner layers of bark rolled together into delicate quills.
That difference is part of what makes it such an important product for Westvale Farms.
