The spice grown in Grenada is Ceylon Cinnamon, referred to as “True Cinnamon”, grown from the Ceylon Cinnamomum zeylancum tree which originated from Sri Lanka [formerly known as Ceylon]. True Cinnamon is sweeter, milder and is harvested from the inner bark of the trees and is often used in baked goods, desserts, drinks, and savory dishes.
