Whole Indonesian cinnamon is one of the most distinctive and recognizable spices in world cuisine. It comes from the bark of the Cinnamomum burmannii tree and is dried in natural, uncut sticks that retain its authentic woody texture and deep, sweet aroma. This form is considered premium, as it allows the spice to gradually release its aroma and flavor, offering greater control and a cleaner aromatic intensity in every preparation.

The Ingredient We Use

The Indonesian cinnamon sticks are carefully selected based on the color, density, and uniformity of the bark. They are naturally dried, with no additives, colorings, or flavor enhancers. The result is cinnamon with a deep brown color, natural woody texture, and intense, sweet aroma that remains consistent in cooking and beverage applications.

Botanical Identity

Cinnamomum burmannii belongs to the Lauraceae family and is one of the most widespread cinnamon varieties in Asia. Indonesia is internationally renowned for producing high-quality cinnamon with a rich aroma and distinctive sweetness.

Aroma, Color, and Flavor

Whole Indonesian cinnamon has a warm, sweet, woody aroma with delicate spicy notes. Its flavor is mild and balanced, making it ideal for sweet and savory recipes. In a cup or dish, it gradually releases its aromatic intensity, adding depth and complexity.
