The oil content plays an important role in purchasing Cassia Cinnamon. The higher the oil content, the higher the quality and it would take much more.

Oil Content, how do you determine them without analyzing from the labs. And maybe by visual only?

Introducing The Oil Line – How much oil left on your Cassia.

Oil Line is the darker part on the inner of your Cassia.

It is like when you deep your Cassia in water, it absorbs water and becomes darker. In this case, it is the oil that make the inner of your Cassia darker. So the thicker the Oil Line is the more oil your Cassia has.

The Oil Content also play an important role on your Cassia Cinnamon roll up rate, if your Cassia happen to content more oil inside, they would likely to roll up more.

The two above Cigar Cassia were dried in the same process and time, but the Cassia Cigar on the left has much more oil. As a result, he will be able to rolled much more than his brother on the right.

However, it doesn’t mean that the Cassia, which is more rolled up, has to bring more oil.

It depends on the drying technique, the storage condition and how long they are stored. Drying Cassia too long, at too high temperature, most of the oil will fly away.

MY CASSIA HAS BEEN STORED FOR A LONG TIME, BUT THEIR OIL LINE STAY THE SAME, IS IT A MIRACLE?

Miracle or not, it depends on your point of view. But first, please have a look at the difference between Volatile Oil and Fixed Oil on Google.

Basically, in Cassia, Volatile Oil will be able to evaporate through time. But Fixed Oil in Cassia will not.

Those Cassia Cinnamon content Volatile Oil and those content Fixed Oil are two different species. Saigon Cinnamon and Chinese Cinnamon belong to Volatile Oil type.

Those Cassia Cinnamon Stick on the left come with Fixed Oil, and those from the right equip Volatile Oil.

There is also difference in their taste. When Saigon Cinnamon and Chinese Cinnamon are spicy and sweet, Fixed Oil Cassia has none of those. As a result, they are cheaper and sometime be mixed with other Cassia Cinnamon to lower the price.

Anyway, thank you very much for supporting and reading up till this point.
