It takes Ceylon cinnamon trees 3-5 years before they are able to produce a high enough quality bark for harvesting. Once the trees have reached this initial stage of maturity the bark is harvested twice a year which takes place after each of the two rainy seasons, as rain-soaked bark is easier to remove from the trees.
The bark of the Ceylon tree is smoother and thinner than that of the cassia and the highest grade cinnamon is harvested from the trunk while the branches produce a lower quality cinnamon. The Negombo district on the island's western coast grows the highest quality Ceylon Cinnamon in the world.
While over 90% of Ceylon is grown in Sri Lanka it is also cultivated in Mexico, South America, Seychelles (an island east of Africa and north of Madagascar), Madagascar and India. Ceylon Cinnamon's flavor is quite different from the better known Cassia cinnamon. Unlike the spicier, bolder Cassia cinnamon, Ceylon Cinnamon features a deeply complex yet subtle flavor that is warm and sweet with hints of citrus and cloves.
