Description

Typically, Vietnam cinnamon is an evergreen tree belong to Cinnamomum cassia blume family. Usually, we can see it in Southern China and in South East Asian countries. The tree is about 7-10 meters high when mature. Cinnamon is very versatile. The whole tree can be used for different purposes. For example, bark is the main part. It contains high level of essential oil, minerals and vitamins. The leaves is for extracting essential oil. The wood is for making toothpicks, furniture and so on.

Cinnamon bark is reddish brown. It’s sweet mild spicy, slightly hot and has nice aroma. People use cassia for food, beverage, medicine and cosmetic.

The most important ingredient in cassia cinnamon is the volatile essential oil. The higher content of essential oil, the higher value of cassia cinnamon. It’s usually around 2.0 to 4.5%, and up to 6.0%. People base on the essential oil in the cassia bark to categorize the spice. When cinnamon trees are about 3-5 years old, growers choose the big and healthy trees to chop down for harvesting the bark. They cut down the tree trunk from 50 cm above the soil surface. The bottom will grow again to a new tree, then grower can harvest after another three years.
