Hi Pamela,

Thank you for your inquiry regarding our various cinnamons. Here are the
botanical names of each:

China Cinnamon Cassia (/Cinnamomum cassia/ (L.) Presl)

Korintje Cinnamon (/Cinnamomum burmannii/ [Nees & T.Nees] Blume)

Ceylon Cinnamon (/Cinnamomum zeylanicum/ Blume)

Vietnamese Cinnamon (/Cinnamomum loureiroi/ Nees.)

Penzeys Spices gladly gives advice on use of spices and seasonings in
regard to cooking and baking.

Penzeys does not give advice on any medicinal, health, or other related
uses of spices.

I hope this information helps.

Thanks again and have a great day,
Kathy

Dear Penzey's-

Could you please supply me with the accepted botanical names of each of
the cinnamons you sell? I use it in my garden as a fungicide and would
like to know. Also, if you have any information about original research
and which species was used in it, I would appreciate that too.

Thanks very much,

Pamela
