Ceylon Dried Cinnamon Leaves – 50 Whole Leaves

Organic Herbal Spice | Aromatic & Medicinal | Sri Lankan Heritage

A Subtle Spice with Deep Roots

From the lush cinnamon groves of Sri Lanka comes a lesser-known but deeply aromatic treasure—Ceylon Cinnamon Leaves, also known locally as Kurundu kola. While the bark of the Cinnamomum verum tree is world-famous, its leaves offer a gentler, more nuanced flavor and a host of wellness benefits. Ceylon Brands brings you 50 whole, sun-dried cinnamon leaves, organically cultivated and carefully selected to preserve their essential oils and natural integrity.

Whether you’re simmering a curry, steeping a herbal tea, or crafting a natural remedy, these leaves offer a warm, woody aroma and a touch of Sri Lankan tradition in every infusion.

Flavor & Aroma Profile

Ceylon cinnamon leaves offer a mildly spicy, herbal flavor with hints of clove, citrus, and cinnamon bark. Their aroma is warm, woody, and slightly floral, making them ideal for slow-cooked dishes and herbal infusions. Unlike bay leaves, cinnamon leaves impart a subtle sweetness and a complex depth without overpowering other ingredients.

Culinary Applications

Cinnamon leaves are a staple in Sri Lankan and South Asian cooking, often used in place of bay leaves for a more aromatic experience. Here’s how to use them:

• Curries & Stews: Simmer whole leaves in meat, fish, or vegetable curries for layered flavor.
• Rice & Pilafs: Add to biryani, yellow rice, or coconut rice for a fragrant twist.
• Soups & Broths: Infuse into lentil soups, rasam, or herbal broths.
• Teas & Tonics: Steep in hot water with ginger and honey for a soothing herbal tea.
• Desserts & Baking: Use in custards, puddings, or infused syrups for a warm spice note.
• Spice Blends & Marinades: Combine with cloves, cardamom, and pepper for aromatic rubs.

Cooking Tip: Like bay leaves, cinnamon leaves should be removed before serving to avoid bitterness.
