The Spice Island of Ceylon

The exotic spice trade was part of the fabric of Ceylon for centuries, even before the Portuguese traders and European conquistadors arrived. The great Arabian traveler Ibn-Batuta traded in aromatic Ceylon cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg, and the reputation of Ceylon spices echo from beyond the time of the great King Solomon of Israel, who according to the bible, sent trade ships to Tharshish (Sri Lanka) in search of “True Cinnamon”. Today, Sri Lanka is a leading exporter of Ceylon Cinnamon, Ceylon Pepper, Ceylon Cloves, Ceylon Cardamom and the famed Ceylon Tea, all branded under the geographical indication of Ceylon Spices due to their unique aroma and flavour.

Ceylon Cinnamon

Ceylon Cinnamon is an aromatic spice that has been used medicinally around the world for thousands of years. It is still used daily in many cultures because of its widespread health benefits, not to mention its distinctly sweet, warming taste and ease of use in recipes.

Ceylon Cardamom

Cardamom is widely referred to as the “Queen of Spices”. A treasured extract from the highlands of Sri Lanka, it was prized highly by European explorers and Sri Lankans alike, even utilised as an offering to the Gods.

Ceylon Pepper

The “King of Spices”, pepper originated from South India, and grows abundantly in the wilderness of Sri Lanka. Pepper comes from an evergreen climbing vine called Piper nigrum, and is the most commonly used spice in the world.
