Cinnamon comes in two forms Cassia and Ceylon - Cassia is from Indonesia and is ideal in cooking, sauces etc with ceylon is sweeter but delicate flavour ideal in sweets and deserts - this can be found here
For many cuisines cinnamon has been used to naturally provide a sweeter flavour from Indian Curries to Chinese Stir Frys and everything in between
Cinnamon is a wonderful natural spice used by some for health benefits and others for cinnamon flavour - whatever the reason Cinnamon is a wonderful spice to use in your food
Cinnamon Cassia usage - 1 Tsp is approx 1.5 Quills
We blend 5% Ceylon powder into this Cassia Cinnamon powder, this helps with the blending process when using in recipes but does not alter the flavour of the cassia

Cinnamon Ground - Quick Reference
What is it?: cassia cinnamon ground powder, from the robust bark commonly used for everyday cooking and baking.
Flavour: Strong, warm and sweetly woody, with a fuller, hotter character than Ceylon cinnamon.
Common uses: Curries, stews, baking, mulled drinks, pickling, spice blends and slow-cooked sauces.
How to use: Add directly with other ground spices; start modestly because cassia has a strong flavour.
Compare with: Cassia is bolder and more assertive than Ceylon cinnamon, making it better suited to strongly flavoured dishes.
Substitute: Ceylon cinnamon can substitute for a softer, sweeter result; Vietnamese cinnamon gives an even stronger effect.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep sealed to protect the aroma and flavour.
Good to know: Ground cassia disperses evenly through doughs, rubs and sauces, giving immediate cinnamon flavour.

A step
A step up from the cinnamon I've bought in supermarkets... it's good enough that I keep trying to find excuses to use it.
