Frontier Organic Ceylon Ground Cinnamon, 1-Pound Bulk Bag, Non-GMO Fair-Trade Certified Organic Cinnamon PowderUSDA Organic

I read about how Ceylon cinnamon is supposed to be good for you, for many reasons. So, I started using it daily (just a teaspoon per day). I like to mix it with some yogurt, fruit and granola, or in overnight oats. I have also used it in smoothies, and it adds a nice flavor to them. So, not only is it good for you, but it actually tastes good, too. Ceylon cinnamon has a milder, more subtle flavor than Cassia cinnamon (which is what you will normally find in the grocery store). Cassia gives that hot/spicy cinnamon flavor, whereas Ceylon has a softer, warm cinnamon flavor.Anyway, this is a good quality Ceylon cinnamon, and you get lots of it, at a good price.

Trusted brand. Good and tasty and reasonable price.

Frontier co-op has long been my go to for spices and herbs: great company and good quality. This cinnamon is exquisite in smell and taste. but much milder than cassia cinnamon - almost floral-citrus in smell and taste. So be aware when using for baking or cooking that it may not be the cinnamon flavor you are used to. There are two main types of this spice: Cassia cinnamon and Ceylon cinnamon. Their essential oil ratios are different with the Ceylon being lower which accounts for its milder flavor. Studies have shown both have similar health benefits regarding anti-diabetic and blood sugar lowering results .Note: cassia contains coumarin which can be harmful in large doses. Exceeding the upper limit for coumarin is easily possible if you are consuming a lot of cassia cinnamon. In many cases, just 1-2 teaspoons could bring someone over the daily limit: if you regularly eat a lot of cinnamon or take a supplement that contains it, then it should be Ceylon and not cassia. (this is the end of my public service announcement.)The cost of the Ceylon is higher but buying in bulk brings the price per ounce lower when compared to the cost of the little glass jars in the grocery store. Also, the mylar packaging is light and moisture proof - just roll the package closed, secure with a rubber band and put it in a container with a screw top lid . Stored at room temperature it should last a year. Fill one of those little glass grocery store jars for the cupboard and enjoy !

This is a great quality product at a very low price. It's fresh, finely ground texture and it smells wonderful. I only gave it four stars because it does not come in a resealable bag.

Great product and great amount for price

Outstanding taste and quality

I recently acquired this form of cinnamon mainly for my son who has special needs and loves cinnamon. I prepare all his meals and every time I add the more common Cassia cinnamon (Kirkland Saigon Cinnamon) we usually have on hand I wonder how much is too much before it could be harmful. I decided to go with Ceylon so now I don't have to worry about that. Of course I had to test some myself and I have to say that this cinnamon, apart from being safer to consume, is also extremely delicious and perfectly aromatic. It just has this incredible flavor that is superior to any of the other cinnamon I have ever had. The truth is I used to think the Kirkland brand of Cassia/Saigon was excellent in terms of flavor (although a safety concern) but this Frontier Ceylon puts the Kirkland in a very distant second place in terms of flavor and the huge bonus of also not being a safety concern. How perfect that it is both safer to consume and surprisingly much tastier. Describing flavor is not easy to articulate but this Frontier Ceylon we received is complex and yet subtle. It just hits all the right notes as far as I am concerned. Do yourself a favor and whether it be for life experience of trying something incredibly tasty, or just because it is safer to consume than Cassia (or both reasons), try some of this incredible cinnamon.
