The Legacy of the Cinnamon Peeler
The beauty of Ceylon Cinnamon is the outcome of the expertise and specialist knowledge of traditional cinnamon peelers. We respect and honour their contribution to the cinnamon field.
Traditional master peelers whose skills have passed down from generations excel in the techniques of processing cinnamon quills. The world’s oldest and exclusive cinnamon is produced in our own estates from lush perennial crops of Ceylon Cinnamon branches peeled by the deft hands of our brilliant and experienced peelers who skillfully produce excellent types of quills. This is the secret of the legendary power of royal taste that proves the exceptional freshness of real flavour.

Process
The calibre of the peelers with decades of experience and the latest management skills combine to produce the best cinnamon products.
Cinnamon cultivation is mostly spread in down South. Plantations keep the trees to a small bush size growing up to five feet. When it’s ready for harvesting, peelers cut down branches of the trees from the bottom. The inner lining and outer bark are scraped off and the rest is left to dry. It eventually curls into the quills and it’s called ‘Pure Ceylon Cinnamon’. These quills are rolled together to form the final product – ‘cut cinnamon’.
