Does the cinnamon in the cinna honey use ceylon cinnamon?

It doesn't specifically say, but I would guess that it is Ceylon cinnamon. I read the label, but couldn't find anything specific.

It is "true" cinnamon, but not Ceylon. Cassia cinnamon is less expensive, and some doctors advise against it.

No this is not ceylon, but you can buy at Penzey's Spices on line, more expensive and more the true cinnamon but I have no health problems to be concerned about with Canela Molida. Tones has always provided great spices at a fair price and this cinnamon is very fine, sweet smelling and has a great taste and much better taste than cinnamon I have bought in grocery stores.

It doesn't say anything about it on the label, but Saigon cinnamon is Cassia Cinnamon and Cassia naturally contains a fair amount of coumarin. What I read said that Ceylon Cinnamon contains hardly any coumarin. This quote is from Wikipedia: "One teaspoon of cassia cinnamon powder therefore contains 5.8 to 12.1 mg of coumarin, which may be above the tolerable daily intake value for smaller individuals."

According to what I have read in different places on the web, the Ceylon cinnamon is supposed to have only trace amounts of coumarin, significantly less than Saigon and Cassia cinnamon. It would be nice if Frontier would include exact amounts on their label.

The vegetable cellulose capsules contain 100% organic Ceylon cinnamon. There are no other ingredients.

This Ceylon cinnamon is a very "fine" cinnamon. It's almost like a powder so it doesn't "clump" and float on top of tea like non cinnamon. It's easy to stir into tea and seems to blend well. I wasn't sure if it settled on the bottom or not though, so I tried it this morning. Unfortunately, I got interrupted before I finished my tea and it sat on my desk longer than usual. When I finished it, there was some cinnamon left in the bottom of the cup. I don't know if settled out because it sat longer or if it would have settled there anyway. Since it blended into the tea so much easier than non ceylon cinnamon, I think if I had stirred the tea when I came back to it the cinnamon may not have settle to the bottom but I don't know that for sure. There was definitely not as much cinnamon on the bottom of the cup as what I had put in.

I'm sorry to say I found no information on this from the company, and their email link does not seem to be valid. The jar only states cinnamon.

NO. It says clearly in the product description - "Organic Vietnamese cinnamon with a 4% oil content." That means this is the Cassia Cinnamon, not Ceylon. It MUST say Ceylon on the package for it to be authentic Ceylon.

Hi John. Our Ceylon Cinnamon has not been irradiated. No chemicals have been used in the growing and harvesting process. It is pure, premium, food grade. And, our cinnamon is only freshly ground in very small batches for freshness and flavor.

Other reviewers on Amazon revealed that this is not Ceylon Cinnamon, considered the safest. I will be looking for ceylon cinnamon now myself since i put lots of it on my oatmeal 3/4 times a week.

I think it's more for flavor. I have read that ceylon cinnamon is what you need to consume for health benefits!!

All cinnamon contains coumarin. This is cassia cinnamon and therefore contains more than ceylon (true) cinnamon. Over-consumption can lead to liver damage, I've read. And those who are sensitive to coumarin should generally avoid cassia. As I understand it, this is the type of cinnamon that Cinnabon uses. I've used it for years with daily consumption in oatmeal and higher amounts in zucchini bread, cookies, and cinnamon rolls. I've had no negative effects. I've fed my infant oatmeal with this cinnamon in it before and she is perfectly fine. Don't use it in those diet fads or in high amounts with coffee.

We took it out of the package and put it in jars, I am not sure of the origin. It is Ceylon Cinnamon and we are happy with it.

I live in the US but was born and grew up in Sri Lanka. True cinnamon, also known as Ceylon cinnamon (Ceylon is the colonial name of Sri Lanka), is indigenous only to Sri Lanka. Ceylon cinnamon is superior to other kinds because its content of coumarin, a liver toxin, is negligible.

I would go with the Ceylon. Much more intense in flavor. I do a lot of home baking. What works for me is combining the two cinnamon together. You get the best of both. Try it.

From what I understand, no. This is the Vietnamese cinnamon, which has a hot, intense flavor. Like Red Hots. I think Ceylon is the European variety, which is more common.
