Cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum)

India is a key producer of premium-quality cinnamon, with the majority of production coming from Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka. Known for its warm, sweet-spicy flavour, cinnamon is highly valued in global markets for its culinary, medicinal, and aromatic properties.

The dried bark is rolled into quills or sticks, which are brown in colour and have a sweet, fragrant aroma with hints of clove and citrus. Ground cinnamon is a fine powder that retains the full, aromatic flavour and is used in a variety of food and beverage products, as well as in cosmetics and natural remedies.
