In the Middle Ages, the source of cinnamon was a mystery to the western world.

It is now known that Cinnamon originated on the tiny island of Sri Lanka off the coast of India.



This is Cinnamon's real home.



Indonesian rafts transported the cinnamon on a "cinnamon route" directly from the Moluccas to East Africa, where local traders then brought it north to the Roman market.



The Arab merchants

They brought the spice through land trade routes to Alexandria, where it was bought by Venetian merchants from Italy, who had a monopoly on the spice trade in Europe.



The disruption of this trade by the rise of other Mediterranean powers, such as the sultans and the Ottoman Empire, was one of the many factors that led Europeans to seek wider other routes to Asia.



Portuguese merchants

They finally arrived in Ceylon (Sri Lanka) in the early sixteenth century and restructured the traditional production and management of cinnamon by the Sinhalese, who later held the cinnamon monopoly on Ceylon.



The Portuguese built a fort on the island in 1518 and protected their own monopoly for over a hundred years.



Dutch merchants

Dutch merchants eventually disbanded the Portuguese by allying with the Inner Kingdom of Candy.

The Dutch East India Company continued to review nature harvesting methods and eventually began growing its own trees.



In 1767, Lord Brown of the East India Company established the Anjarakkandy Cinnamon Estate in the Kerala region, making it the largest cinnamon estate in Asia.



The British took control of the island from the Dutch in 1796.



However, the importance of the Ceylon monopoly had already diminished as the cultivation of cinnamon spread to other areas, the more common cashew bark was accepted by consumers and coffee, tea , sugar, and chocolate began to gain popularity. Of traditional spices.
