Our hand-rolled Cinnamon Quills are beautifully fragrant and made just for us from young Cinnamon Verum bark (aka Ceylon cinnamon or "true" cinnamon) by our partners in Sri Lanka. They have an enticing, warm flavor that blooms when heated, and you can use a whole quill in place of a standard cinnamon stick.

These quills are perfect for hot beverages, porridge, rice pudding, and savory dishes like braises and stews. Their skinny shape is a mark of incredible skill — each one is hand-rolled and custom-cut to fit in this jar!

SOURCING

Sourcing image

We worked with a group of small farmers in Sri Lanka to source these incredible cinnamon quills. Our partner Hafiz, working alongside his brother Huzaifah and their team, collected the cinnamon from each farmer after it was precisely rolled into tight quills. Our partners went the extra step and made sure that each quill was the right size to fit into our jars!

Sri Lankan cinnamon is some of the finest in the world, and we are honored to be working with expert cinnamon suppliers in the rural areas in and around Matale for these exquisite cinnamon quills!
