Some notions of botany

Originally from Sri Lanka, the cinnamon tree is a tree 6 to 12 meters high, cultivated in other tropical areas, notably in the Antilles and Madagascar. Its evergreen, oval leaves are bright green, its flowers have a greenish color and an unpleasant odor, and its fruit is a club-shaped purple-colored berry. Its thick and rough bark is harvested by farmers during the rainy season.

A spice long considered a true treasure, symbol of power and wealth, Ceylon cinnamon is one of the oldest known and most used spices in the world. It should not be confused with Chinese cinnamon or cassia cinnamon.

A little history…

The term "cinnamon", which appeared in the 12th century, originally meant "reed", undoubtedly due to the pipe shape of its bark sticks. It appears in the Old Testament (in the Book of Kings), and is cited in numerous ancient Chinese, Sanskrit and Egyptian texts.

It was used for its medicinal properties, but also for religious ceremonies and magical rites.

The Greeks and Romans appreciated it mainly for its aphrodisiac properties, but also used it as a disinfectant.

Brought back to France by the Crusaders, like many spices, cinnamon was for a long time a luxury product before seeing its use gradually become more widespread from the Renaissance onwards.
