Understanding Grades

How Ceylon cinnamon is graded.

Ceylon cinnamon is graded mainly by the diameter of the quill (the rolled bark), along with colour, bark thickness and overall appearance, following the Sri Lanka Standards Institution's SLS 81 specification.

Thinner quills mean a lighter colour, a more delicate flavour and a higher price. All grades are genuine Ceylon cinnamon; the difference is refinement and intended use. New to Ceylon? See how it compares to cassia.
