Most of the produce stays in China and is used in Chinese medication. Saigon Cinnamon Known as Vietnamese cinnamon, Saigon is produced from an evergreen indigenous to Southeast Asia. Saigon contains around 1-5% essential oil content and 25% cinnamaldehyde (essential oil) which is highest among all the varieties of cinnamon.
