ROYAL CINNAMON
Origin: an heirloom variety, harvested in the Quang Nam Mountains, Vietnam. Originally produced for the Vietnamese Royal court.
Flavour: Sensational sweet and spicy flavour, sure to arouse all of your taste buds. Prepare for a cinnamon experience like no other - this heavenly profile of honey and citrus will make you feel warm and cosy all over! The sweetest and brightest cinnamon we have ever tasted, utterly delicious.
While most farmers chop down trees to harvest cinnamon, Quang Nam farmers keep the tree alive, make a deep cut at the base and let the bark dry on the tree for a couple of weeks before harvesting it - normally, from trunks of trees 7-10 years old. Curled cinnamon is made from a young branch and is only for aesthetic rather than flavour. This process maintains the fragrant essential oils, creating a deliciously sweet aroma which can be smelt from half a mile away.
How to use:
Sweet but also savoury.
• savoury slow-cooked dishes or tomato dishes,
• Pastries, baking, porridge, chai tea and coffee.
• Aromatic sweetness in Pilafs and curries
