Kandy, Sri Lanka
There are two types of cinnamon: Sri Lankan cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) or “true cinnamon”, and Chinese cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia), its less expensive, one-note cousin. Ours is 100 per cent Sri lankan cinnamon, from the Kandyan Forest Gardens of Sri Lanka–the highest quality of cinnamon in the world.
Our Peni Miris is a custom blend of Peni, or sweet, honey-tasting cinnamon harvested from younger trees, and Miris, or extra-spicy, cinnamon from the barks of old-growth trees.
Our cinnamon is sourced from Ekoland, a community initiative that works with farmers and their families to grow food in a way that conserves the biodiverse forests and native flora of Kandy. The result is a highly productive landscape that supports a wealth of wildlife, and very happy cinnamon trees.
Harvesting cinnamon is a highly skilled task: First the branches of the Cinnamomum verum tree are pruned, then the outer bark is cleaned, and finally, the precious inner bark is peeled by hand, using a small knife and immense skill. The strips of cinnamon bark are then dried, and milled in careful proportion for our signature peni miris flavor profile.
