The Lakpura M-grade Ceylon cinnamon, also known as Mexican grades, can be different from Alba and C-grades when it comes to texture and flavor.
They have a more coarse texture, brown hue, and a powerful, spicy aroma when compared to Alba and C grades Ceylon cinnamon. In fact, they are considered less subtle, and most of the time, it goes in well with savory dishes like curries that include other spices.
However, they can still be challenging to find but not as rare as Alba or C grade and are relatively low in price compared to higher quality Ceylon cinnamon.
