Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What's the difference between Cassia and Ceylon cinnamon powder?
A: Cassia (Cinnamomum cassia) has a strong, spicy-sweet flavor, is reddish-brown, and contains higher levels of coumarin. Ceylon (Cinnamomum verum or 'true cinnamon') is tan-colored, has a milder, more delicate flavor, and very low coumarin, making it a premium choice for EU markets and health-conscious consumers.
Q: What is Volatile Oil (VO) content and why is it important?
A: Volatile Oil content dictates the strength of the cinnamon's aroma and flavor. A higher VO percentage (e.g., 2-3.5%) means a more potent and higher quality powder. We guarantee a specific VO content based on your order.
Q: Do you test for Coumarin?
A: Yes. This is a critical safety test, especially for Cassia cinnamon exported to Europe. We test every batch to ensure coumarin levels are well within the strict limits set by the EU (EFSA) and other regulatory bodies.
Q: Can you provide different mesh sizes?
A: Yes. We can provide various mesh sizes (e.g., 40, 60, 80 mesh) to suit your application, from fine powder for beverages to coarser grinds for spice blends.
Q: What ports do you ship from in India?
A: We primarily ship from major South Indian ports including Cochin (Kerala), Tuticorin, and Chennai, which are close to the main cinnamon growing regions, as well as Mumbai (JNPT).
