This cinnamon spice is incredibly delicious. I’m reordering but had a question. You do not have it listed under category “SOS” and I was wondering if it has any sugar? (It says no added salt but doesn’t mention sugar). Thank you!

This is the most amazing cinnamon. I always knew certain cinnamons tasted better than others, but I had never nailed down a great one. This is it! It’s so flavorful & sweet. I regularly sprinkle it on my apples. It makes them an indulgence instead of just a snack.
