FAQ

Questions about cinnamon

Still have questions?

Ask an engineer directly. No sales sequence.

What about coumarin content?

Cassia naturally contains coumarin and we declare the measured level per lot rather than quoting a range. If your market has a limit, tell us and we will only offer lots that meet it — we do not blend to an average.

Can you supply ground rather than stick?

Yes, ground in-house on a dedicated line. Ground product has a shorter practical shelf life for volatile oil, so we mill against your order rather than holding stock.
