What's the best cinnamon I can get online? Penzey's? The last few times
I've visited the US from the UK I've purchased cinnamon from Cinnabon
shops in airports, but I know I can get better.

This site is tempting as I like the idea of their French Toast cinnamon

Thanks.

The Penzey's Vietnamese cinnamon is fantastic.

Penzey's Vietnamese is the absolute best cinnamon. I love it and use it
every day, in coffee and tea, and use it often on toast, in apple butter,
apple pie/crisp, chocolate soufflé, etc. It's strong, and spicy and sweet
and so much better than that tasteless junk they sell in the supermarket.

They are available online from A Cook's Wares::

The finest zeylanicum cinnamon shipped from the port of Saigon.
Delicate flavor, fragrant and warm.

Korintje cassia from Southwest Sumatra. Milder, more fragrant flavor
than common Indonesian cinnamon:

Thanks for the two alternative sites for spices. After my last order from
Penzey's, I was looking for an alternative source.

Any particular reason? Price? Quality? Selection?

None of the above, Scott. I won't dish their product, tho.
Looking elsewhere,

My favorite online spice shop is:

http://www.thespicehouse.com/

They have *wonderful* spices! I have several of their cinnamons ... I
think my favorite is the China Cassia; it has a spicy, citrusy flavor
that adds a nice depth to baked goods. Their cinnamon page is at:

Last winter I ordered a selection of dried chiles from them and ground a
mixture for chili. It was amazing how much better it was than the
pre-mixed grocery store chili powder and the chili was awesome.

If you shop at Costco or BJ's, they have MCCormack's Gourmet Selection of
"Saigon Cinnamon." I use it, as well as I have Penzey's Vietnamese.
I use it daily on oatmeal.
