Varieties & origins

Ceylon

Made from the inner bark of the Cinnamomum verum tree, Ceylon is the original form of cinnamon. The thinner the rind, the finer and more aromatic the cinnamon taste, which is nobler, more aromatic and less pungent than that of the Cassia variety.

Cinnamon is a very old spice that originally came from Asia. Cinnamon trees are grown on plantations and harvested immediately after the rainy season, as the bark is then fresh and moist and can be easily peeled off. The quality of the cinnamon is based on the texture and color of its quills.

Production

Fast normale Weihnachtsstimmung

Leckere Weihnachtsplätzchen im Winter und dazu der Duft von Zimt in der Nase: Unser Cassia Zimt schmeckt nicht nur gut, sondern weckt auch Erinnerungen an längst vergessene Weihnachten. Die Kollegen im Office sind aber nicht wählerisch und würden die Plätzchendose auch im Juni leer räumen.

Ganz ohne Eselsbrücke: Cassia Zimt stammt von...

... festhalten – der Zimtcassie. Die Pflanze gehört zu den Lorbeergewächsen und ist eigentlich in China heimisch. Das zimtig riechende Gewächs wird aber mittlerweile in vielen Ländern angebaut, unser Cassia Zimt stammt aus Indonesien.

Von Hand geerntet

Womit Du Deinen Milchreis verfeinerst, kann keine Maschine ernten. Denn die Rinde der Zimtcassie muss von Hand entfernt und dann von ihren äußeren Schichten befreit werden. Durch das Trocknen rollt sie sich dann aber ganz alleine zur Zimtstange zusammen.

Von wegen alles Zimt

Cassia vs. Ceylon: Beides geht bei uns als Zimt durch. Dabei unterscheiden sich die beiden Gewürze nicht nur leicht im Geschmack und ihrem Cumaringehalt – auch ihre Form ist anders. Die feine Rinde des Ceylon-Zimtbaums rollt sich wie eine Zigarre zusammen, Cassia Zimt sieht eher aus wie ein Rohr.

Snacks im Dutzend

Geerntet, getrocknet, gemahlen und verpackt. Wer das alles durchgemacht hat, hat sich eine kurze Verschnaufpause in bester Gesellschaft verdient. Deshalb warten unsere Snacks und Gewürze hier in unserem Lager auf Deine nächste Bestellung.
