Cinnamon has been used as a flavoring agent and medicinal for centuries, especially in Asia. The presence of coumarin, however, can be problematic in high doses or in certain individuals with a history of liver disease.

Cinnamomum cassia, otherwise known as Chinese cinnamon, contains less volatile oil and therefore less coumarin than other varieties, but has a sweeter flavor.

Cinnamomum cassia is harvested from the dried bark of an evergreen tree that is native to China that is now cultivated in Thailand, India and Vietnam. Also known as Chinese cinnamon, this is the variety most commonly found in US supermarkets. Because the bark is thicker and has a slightly more bitter taste than other varieties, is also sometimes referred to as bastard cinnamon.
