0. Executive Summary
Judgment axis | Key judgment |
| Item Identity | Representative bark spice crops utilizing the dried bark of trees of the genus Cinnamomum |
| Representative Plant Entity | Cinnamomum verum J.Presl |
| Key role | Bark → Peeled Bark → Quill/Stick/Chips → Powder·Sterilized Product·Extracted raw materials |
| Harvesting principle | Connect Species, Cultivar/Clone, Tree/Block, Stem Age, Harvest Date, and Dark Position to Lot |
| Product separation | Separate Ceylon Cinnamon·Chinese/Indonesian/Vietnamese Cassia and Quill·Stick·Powder |
| Separation of similar items | Not consolidating different Cinnamomum species into simple cinnamon |
| Plant classification | Kew classifies C. verum as a recognized species and lists Sri Lanka as its origin. ( Plants of the World Online ) |
| Definition of international goods | The FAO describes True Cinnamon and Cassia as prepared and dried bark spices of the genus Cinnamomum. ( FAOHome ) |
| Codex status | In the 2025 CCSCH documents, the Cinnamon standard was discussed at Step 3/4, and the key issue was distinguishing the scope and nomenclature of Ceylon Cinnamon and various Cassia species. ( FAOHome ) |
| Sri Lanka 2024 production | Although the Sri Lanka Government Statistical Data Sheet 2024 presents annual cinnamon production figures of 35,462 MT and 37,028 MT , the exact correspondence for each year must be confirmed and entered into the Runtime after reconfirming the source table. ( Statistics Korea ) |
| Sri Lanka export industry | The Sri Lanka Export Development Board projects that the Spices & Allied Products industry will achieve an export value of US$449.91 million and an export volume of 40,302.14 MT by 2025. This figure represents the entire spice and related products industry, not just Cinnamon alone. ( Sri Lanka Business ) |
| Recent Export Trends | The Sri Lanka EDB announced that cinnamon exports in February 2026 increased by 41.88% compared to the same month of the previous year. This represents the export growth rate for a specific month, not the annual production volume. ( Sri Lanka Business ) |
| Domestic production statistics | Commercial Cultivation Area and Production Volume of Cinnamon in South Korea: To be entered after verification of official raw data. |
| Domestic import statistics | 2025/2026 Cinnamon/Cassia Import Volume, Value, and Major Supply Countries: Entered after verification of Korea Customs Service HS raw data |
| Core quality | Species · Origin · Dark Thickness · Moisture · Volatile Oil · Flavor · Microorganisms · Pesticide Residues · Contaminants |
| Key Risks | Species contamination · Origin mixing · Bark quality variation · Mold · Microorganisms · Powder tampering · Loss of aroma during storage |
| Operating Principles | Species–Tree/Block–Bark Lot–Quill/Stick/Powder–Quality Certificate–Buyer RFQ connection |
| Final goal | Connecting Producers–Bark Processors–Exporters–Importers–Sterilization & Grinding Companies–Food, Restaurant, and Private Brand Buyers all the way to repurchase |
The first issue to address regarding cinnamon is not whether it is cinnamon or not, but rather identifying which Cinnamomum species and which bark product it is . Even in FAO/Codex data, while Ceylon Cinnamon and Cassia are both bark spices, they are treated differently in terms of species and product characteristics. ( FAO Home )
