Most store-bought cinnamon is actually Cassia, which is stronger, cheaper, and high in coumarin (a compound linked to liver damage in large doses). Alba cinnamon is pure Ceylon cinnamon with extremely low coumarin content, making it safer and more refined.
What is Alba Cinnamon?
Alba cinnamon is the highest grade of Ceylon cinnamon (true cinnamon), hand-harvested in Sri Lanka. It’s known for its delicate, sweet flavor and paper-thin quills — unlike Cassia cinnamon, which is coarse and bitter.
