 | | Cinnamon is harvested by growing the tree for two years and then coppicing it. | | | The pungent taste and scent come from cinnamic aldehyde or cinnamaldehyde and, by the absorption of oxygen as it ages, it darkens in colour and develops resinous compounds. | | | The fruit is a purple 1 cm berry containing a single seed. |
