This wonderful spice has been used for over the years due to its fragrance, medicinal and culinary properties and has a number of health benefits<\/a>.

This one great spice compliments both sweet and salty dishes and drinks as well. <\/p>\n

There are different types of cinnamon, but only four varieties of it are used for commercial purposes. These varieties include Ceylon Cinnamon, Cassia Cinnamon, Saigon Cinnamon, and Korintje Cinnamon. Cassia, Saigon, and Korintje Cinnamon are classified under the Cassia Cinnamon as they are very similar to each other.
