The “true” cinnamon tree is an evergreen tree that can grow up to fifteen metres tall.
Originally from present-day Sri Lanka, it belongs to the Lauraceae family. Its leaves are long and shiny; its small round flowers give berries of a dark blue.
Cinnamon is known to reduce feelings of depression, fainting and exhaustion. It is known to relax the body enough to stimulate libido, making it an effective natural aphrodisiac.
