Cardamom is one of the world’s very ancient spices. It is native to the East originating in the forests of the Western Ghats in southern India, where it grows wild. Today it also grows in Sri Lanka, Guatemala, Indo China and Tanzania. The ancient Egyptians chewed cardamom seeds as a tooth cleaner; the Greeks and Romans used it as a perfume. Vikings came upon cardamom about one thousand years ago, in Constantinople, and introduced it into Scandinavia, where it remains popular to this day. Cardamom is an expensive spice, second only to saffron. It is often adulterated and there are many inferior substitutes from cardamom-related plants, such as Siam cardamom, Nepal cardamom, winged Java cardamom, and bastard cardamom. However, it is only Elettaria cardamomum which is the true cardamom. Indian cardamom is known in two main varieties: Malabar cardamom and Mysore cardamom.

Cassia Cinnamon Stick Our Cinnamon is exclusively imported from a single estate java island, Indonesia. On every part of the mountain, our beautiful cinnamon trees are traditionally and naturally grown without the use of pesticide, and human interference. Every 20 years, cinnamon trees naturally grow in a vast mid-java area and should be ready for harvest. At the same time, our dedicated grower plants the seeds and in six months the seeds produce a plant that is 50-60 centimeters high. At this point, our growers replant the cinnamon sprout in the growth. Next, as the plants produce more seeds, we distribute them to all of our long partnership farmers. Our dedicated farmer peeling the bark at the same location where the tree was chopped down. Sometimes, our farmers stay overnight to do the work. Once the bark is collected, it will be distributed to the warehouse for a sun-dried process. In the warehouse, our team grades the bark, removes sticks, other materials and eventually ties the barks in a bundle. Finally, we cut the sticks and bundle them together for retail ready and pack into a jar based on your choice/preference.
Cassia Cinnamon Powder Cinnamon can quickly lose its organic flavor once it has gone through the ground process unless airtight sealed and stored properly in a cool, dry place. If stored properly, the cinnamon and its fresh aroma can remain vibrant for up to a year. The cinnamon ground has an extremely rich aroma which runs the original taste more than any other grown cinnamon. Indonesian cassia cinnamon's taste is bitter or astringent, citrus, pungent, sweet, and woody. Cinnamon powder is made up of 4 to 6 percent essential oil as it gives the cinnamon its intense, aroma and favorable flavor.
