Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think culinary 'cinnamon' is cassia root,

not true cinnamon.

I think true cinnamon is Cinnamomum zeylanicum and cassia is Cinnamomum

cassia.

Interestingly Bensky/Gamble lists Cinnamomum cassia as the g/s for Rou gui.

They seem to be very similar plants in terms of constituents.
