Organic essential oil Cinnamon is obtained by steam distillation of cinnamon leaves and twigs – Cinnamomum zeylanicum or “Ceylon cinnamon”. It comes into Amon & Anis bottles from organic plantations in Sri Lanka. This essential oil is certified organic & food grade – Bio Aroma. There are two types of cinnamon essential oil based on which part of the cinnamon tree is used for distillation. The first is extracted from the bark and is very strong, so it is necessary to educate yourself or seek the help of a expert for proper use. The second is extracted from the leaves and twigs and is not as strong as the first, but it should still be handled with CARE.
Who doesn’t know the sweet, spicy oriental scent of cinnamon? It came to European cuisine from Asia along the Silk Road and with Arab sailors. We have adopted it as our own because of its delicious, invigorating aroma. Cinnamon essential oil delights us in festive Christmas cookies, as well as in apple strudels, pies, puddings, milk desserts, compotes and fruit smoothies. Cinnamon essential oil can be diffused into the room, as it intensly purifies the air and supports our immune system, while creating a festive atmosphere. Historical sources even say that during the European plague, thieves smeared themselves with an oil mixture that also contained cinnamon to protect themselves from the disease, which is now justified by the strong antimicrobial effects of cinnamon.
