| History of Cinnamon Powder |
| Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) originates from Sri Lanka, historically known as Ceylon, and has been prized for over 2,000 years as one of the world’s most valuable spices. It was highly sought after in ancient Egypt, Rome, and the Middle East, where it was used in perfumes, rituals, and early culinary preparations. During the Middle Ages, cinnamon became a central commodity in the global spice trade, controlled by Arab merchants and later European powers, including the Portuguese and Dutch in Sri Lanka. Its rarity and delicate flavor made it a symbol of luxury and status across Europe. Today, Sri Lanka remains the world’s leading source of true Ceylon cinnamon, continuing a legacy of cultivation and craftsmanship rooted in history. |
