Heirloom Organic True Cinnamon Extract

$28.00 (incl. GST)

Our Organic True Cinnamon (Ceylon) Extract is a lab-tested, single-origin cinnamon extract sourced from Sri Lanka’s central highlands. With a softly warm, citrus-tinged aroma, it enhances beverages, baking, desserts or topical blends in small doses. Certified organic and free from synthetic additives, it offers pure and intense cinnamon character without harshness.

Description

Origin & Purity

We source our Organic True Cinnamon Extract from Sri Lanka (Ceylon), the historical home of Cinnamomum verum. In the central provinces—where elevation, rainfall and soil conditions suit the species best—the inner bark of mature cinnamon trees is carefully harvested. Our extract is produced under organic certification, with no synthetic pesticides, no artificial carriers, and with minimal processing to preserve the cinnamon’s natural aroma and character.

Production & Quality

We use a gentle extraction method (e.g. alcohol + water co-solvent or other food-grade medium) tailored to draw out key aromatic compounds and actives without degrading them. After extraction, we filter and standardise to assure batch consistency. Every lot undergoes independent lab testing to confirm identity, absence of adulterants (e.g. cassia), and compliance with organic standards.

Aroma & Sensory Profile

This extract yields a softly warm, citrus-tinged cinnamon aroma, with more brightness and nuance than common cassia types. It shows a mellow sweetness, fine spice notes, and a light lingering spice warmth. Because it contains no heavy solvents or masking agents, it integrates cleanly into culinary or topical uses without overpowering.

Usage Suggestions

You can incorporate this cinnamon extract into everyday cooking, baking, beverages, or topical formulations:

  • Add a few drops to oatmeal, smoothies, or chai.
  • Stir into yeast doughs, custards, pancake batter, syrups, or nut butters.
  • Use in desserts like custard, rice pudding or spiced creams.
  • In topical use, blend into sugar scrubs, facial masks or oils (in small dilution) to impart gentle fragrance and warming aroma (ensure skin safety and patch test).

Because it is more concentrated than ground bark, you’ll often use far less to get a clear cinnamon flavour or scent.

Key Benefits of Ingredients

Below is a benefits-style list that stays within acceptable language (i.e. descriptive/compositional benefits, not medical claims):

  • Derived from 100 % Cinnamomum verum (true cinnamon)—not cassia
  • Certified organic, free from synthetic pesticides and additives
  • Produced via a clean extraction method for purity and consistency
  • Provides aromatic and flavour intensity in small volumes
  • Retains natural volatile oils and character without harsh solvent notes
  • Versatile for both culinary and topical use (in dilution)

Packaging & Storage

We pack the extract in amber or dark glass bottles with air-tight caps to protect it from light and oxidation. Store in a cool, dry place and keep the cap tightly closed when not in use. Use within a recommended shelf life (e.g. 24 months) for best aroma preservation.

Why Choose This Extract

Because it’s single-origin and minimally processed, this extract delivers the genuine essence of Ceylon cinnamon—with a clean, fresh aroma and flavour that integrates gracefully into foods or gentle topical uses. Its authenticity, lab-tested quality, and organic sourcing make it a premium addition.
