Description
The long, complicated history of cinnamon starts in Sri Lanka (once called Ceylon), where it grew originally before becoming prized around the world as a preservative and medicine—worth so much that it was often traded as a commodity. (Wars were fought over control of the source!) Made from the inner bark of the tropical cinnamon tree, the curled stick is the foundation of both Chinese Five Spice powder and iconic American apple pie.

As a spice company founded by a James Beard Award-winning chef, it is our pursuit of superior flavor and taste that drives us. We carry that "taste-making" approach into selecting our spices and creating our Signature Blends & Rubs. From our takes on the classics like Garam Masala and Herbs de Provence, to our Signature Blends like Cowboy Grilling Rub and Chai Masala, professional and home chefs alike can find every spice they need. With over 100 different herbs and spices in our stock, and more than 30 original specialty blends, Spicewalla can fulfill all your spice needs. We source directly from quality suppliers in small quantities, anywhere from twenty-five to one hundred pounds in a delivery. This method of buying and receiving smaller shipments ensures the freshness of the product not only for our benefit, but for the benefit of our customers. This is also why we roast, grind, and pack our spices in small batches.
