- Ceylon Flavors Fresh and Pure Cinnamon Powder (8.8 oz, 250g) Premium Special Grade

This is a good cinnamon, or at the very least the best you are gonna find online, along with many other cinnamon brands.Yes it does have a taste and smell, shocker I know, yes it is similar to Cassia, well no duh it is. It is less abrasive and more pleasant, little more spicy, pretty sure cassia cinnamon has added sugar where as Ceylon has natural sugar from the bark. (Meaning it is less sweet overall however being better in flavor).The flavor is greatly enhanced from sugar, which is why it's common in baking and sweet coffee drinks.As for the 1 star reviews, quite frankly they seem over-emotional and a little bit delusional.I bought this cinnamon out of sheer curiosity because it seems to be a controversial item (somehow) and as I suspected the angry people way over-exaggerated some of the negatives.To put it in perspective the difference between Cassia and Ceylon, is very akin to French Vanilla and Vanilla Bean; Vanilla Bean is much more pleasant tasting while also having a much more diverse taste profile, where as French is just sugar syrup with the essence of vanilla or it as a back-round flavor.I do recommend Ceylon over Cassia just from taste alone, you can do much more with it and it can also be used in savory dishes as well via salt also enhancing the natural flavor's.Cassia is a fine alternative as long as you don't overuse it chronically. Surprisingly a lot of Cassia seems to be not far off from the price of Ceylon, especially the "organic" Cassia lol, so if you use cinnamon every day, like EVERY day than just buy Ceylon, otherwise stick to Cassia.

This cinnamon was exactly as promised and a great value for my money. It doesn’t have a super strong taste, is organic and perfect for supplemental use. I wouldn’t recommend it for flavoring, it is very mild. I Love this product.

Until recently, I had no knowledge of "good" or "bad" cinnamon. I always bought that store brand cinnamon until I asked myself, "how much is too much, and could it hurt me?" Apparently, yes, it can be toxic if we eat too much cassia cinnamon because of the amount of coumarin in it; according to the American Chemical Society, cassia cinnamon contains 63 times more coumarin than ceylon cinnamon. But if you think ALL ceylon cinnamon is the same, they are not! I researched where, how, reading reviews, and found this brand. I will never try a different cinnamon again, this is the one! I promise, the smell, taste, texture, everything, even the color is beautiful. It is not spicy, but I read that true cinnamon isn't. I love spicy, and I thought I wouldn't like it after reading it had a subtle scent and flavor, but I'm not disappointed. And as far as price goes, it is not expensive at all. Just to be clear, I bought Ceylonflavors FRESH AND PURE 100% ORGANIC CEYLON CINNAMON POWDER Net. Wt. 3.5 oz (100g).

The best tasting and healthiest cinnamon I ever had

Good flavor and consistency, just doesn't blend or dilute as well as I like... grains stay at the bottom of my tea cup.

The media could not be loaded. This cinnamon came in a nice package and seems to be very high quality. I'm very pleased.

The people who write the negative reviews obviously don't have a clue what this is, Ceylon cinnamon is not your grocery store type cinnamon which is Cassia. This cinnamon has health uses that are numerous, I use it for blood sugar control and anytime I have stomach issues like mild food poisoning.With that said this Ceylon is the highest quality I have purchased to date! And I've bought a lot! It's fresh with a 2 year expiration date, very aromatic and tastes great, its exactly what the seller says it is and what I expect from Ceylon cinnamon. Do your own research and you will discover for yourself how fabulous Ceylon cinnamon is.

Very good product, not as strong as Saigon Cinnamon. I use both for different purposes.
