It comes from peeled tree bark. I love the way cinnamon smells, it is one of my all-time favorite spices!

I think the bark comes from new shoots of the cinnamon tree that spring up after tree is cut back to the ground.

I've been reading up on cinnamon, and it seems that we here in America primarily use the imitation kind, cassia. It's possible I haven't had real cinnamon in my life.

You've never had cinnamon?! Do you mean, you've never had pure cinnamon, or you've never had any kind of cinnamon? That's odd, you have to try it.
