Cinnamomum aromaticum (Cassia) is native to China and grows wild in the southern mountains.

As C. aromaticum is native to China, it has been widely used there for thousands of years in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine). It is believed to balance the spleen, kidney, heart and liver meridians and to stimulate the circulation and movement of “chi” or energy. It is considered to warm the kidneys and is especially helpful in cold or stagnant conditions. In Ayurveda (traditional Indian system of healing), cassia is called 'twak' and is believed to support the respiratory, digestive, nervous, circulatory, urinary and reproductive systems.

They can be added whole to mulled wines or used as a stirrer for coffee, tea or hot cocoa, simultaneously releasing flavor and fragrance from the stick.
