Cinnamon description

Cinnamon is probably the oldest spice in the world. The first mention of the use of this plant dates back to 2700 BC. It is known that the Egyptians imported cinnamon from China as early as 2000 BC. Cinnamon is obtained from camphor cinnamon, which grows wild in China and Japan. It is an evergreen tree, growing in arid, tropical areas, reaching a height of up to 10 meters. Young leaves of cinnamon are often red, and all parts of the plant emit a characteristic, spicy aroma of cinnamon.
