Certified Organic Ceylon Cinnamon Sticks

Cinnamon is the most powerful antioxidant in nature. The Romans used it in their wines, the Hebrews in their religious rituals, now it is widely used in medical industry, both savory and sweet food and beverages.

Ceylon cinnamon is excellent solution to various health problems. Study shows that cinnamon intake can effectively lower blood sugar level. Some research has been identified cinnamon has effects on blood clotting. Cinnamon is also used to fight fungus and Bactria and some cancer prevention ability of cinnamon also identified.

Cinnamon contains coumarin, a toxin which is naturally available in many foods. According to tolerable daily intake (TDI) level established by German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR), regular use of over 0.1 mg coumarin per kg body weight generates health risk. Hesse, use of coumarin rich cinnamon products will generate additional health risk parallel with its health benefits.

Ceylon cinnamon is safe for daily use. It never go beyond the TDI level due to its ultra-low coumarin content (~0.004%). Cassia cinnamon consists of 1200 times more coumarin content over Ceylon cinnamon (~ 5%) and exceeds the TDI limit easily. In 2006, BfR has warned against regular usage of cassia cinnamon, due to its high coumarin content. Ceylon cinnamon is highly valuable over other varieties due to its ultra-low coumarin level.

When you purchase cinnamon at a local store in your country, it may be a cassia cinamon variety which is completely different product than Ceylon cinnamon.

Unfortunately, it is less known to most people.

Highest cinnamon grade

Alba is rolled from the youngest, innermost bark — paper-thin quills under 1 mm. The finest of all Ceylon grades.

True Ceylon — not cassia

Cinnamomum verum — botanically different to cassia, far lower in coumarin and far more delicate in flavour.

Directly from our family farm

Grown, peeled, rolled and packed on our plantation in Baddegama, Southern Province. No wholesalers.

USDA & Sri Lanka Organic certified

Certified by Control Union under USDA NOP and Sri Lanka organic standards. No synthetic inputs.

1,200×Less coumarin than cassia

Safe for daily use

Ceylon cinnamon contains ~0.004% coumarin. Cassia contains ~5% — roughly 1,200× more. The German BfR (2006) warned against regular cassia use; Ceylon cinnamon has never triggered such a warning.

🍵

Chai & masala tea

Simmer 1 stick for 8 minutes with ginger, cardamom and black pepper. Thin bark releases flavour faster than cassia.

🍷

Mulled wine & cider

Add 2 sticks per litre with cloves and star anise. Alba’s subtle sweetness complements wine without bitterness.

🍚

Rice, biryani & pilafs

Toast a stick in oil before adding rice. Remove before serving. One Alba stick perfumes a full pot of basmati.

🥣

Overnight oats

Tuck a stick into your oats jar overnight. Infuses gently with no bitterness. Remove in the morning.

💧

Cinnamon water

Soak one stick in a litre of cold water overnight. A light, subtly spiced drink.

🍫

Hot chocolate & coffee

Stir your hot drink with an Alba stick. Reuse 2–3 times.

💡 Tip: Alba sticks are soft enough to grind in a standard spice grinder — unlike cassia they won’t damage your blades.

Ceylon cinnamon is graded by quill diameter under SLS 83 (Sri Lanka Standards Institution). Alba is the smallest diameter and thinnest bark — the premium end of the spectrum.
