Where growing true cinnamon ?
My name is Sarath living in Sri Lanka and we are growing cinnamon. Our island is 65610 square km.but all-island, not growing everywhere cinnamon. Where I am living the place called Karandeniya is the best cinnamon growing place. I am proud to say that the best cinnamon comes from my home town.

The most punctual recorded reference to cinnamon as a result of Sri Lanka goes back to the thirteenth century, when the Chinese, who exchanged with Ceylon was keen on the revelation of the significant characteristics of the bark of a Sinhalese tree, comparable yet better than the cassia of their own nation. It is accounted for that when the Sinhalese item was imported to Europe, its prevalence was before long perceived and the item has gotten a high cost. Cinnamon, otherwise called the "Zest of Life" is delivered from the sweet-smelling bark of cinnamon tree, which is indigenous to Sri Lanka and now develops in Madagascar, Seychelles, India and West Indies. Ceylon cinnamon is generally utilized in sweet dishes, what's more, gives a flavor that can't be accomplished from some other flavor. It is utilized for prepared nourishment and furthermore in a scope of curry powders for enhance improvement.
