Cinnamon Plantation Visit
Cinnamon Peeler SR 11

The quest for spices – especially cinnamon – shaped the destiny of our island centuries ago and is thus a key part of the island heritage. Our cinnamon experience centres around a visit a working cinnamon plantation a short distance inland. See first-hand how cinnamon is planted, harvested, peeled, and quills are prepared. Your guide also explains cinnamon leaf bundling and the entire process of cinnamon oil extraction, as well as the surprising uses of this very special oil. It demonstrates an eco-friendly and perfectly self-sustaining farming process, with every part of the plant used or recycled. The experience is topped off with a tasting of cinnamon infused beverages and a peeling demonstration.
