Buying cinnamon online

What's the best cinnamon I can get online? Penzey's? The last few times I've visited the US from the UK I've purchased cinnamon from Cinnabon shops in airports, but I know I can get better.

This site is tempting as I like the idea of their French Toast cinnamon

The Penzey's Vietnamese cinnamon is fantastic.

Penzey's Vietnamese is the absolute best cinnamon. I love it and use it every day, in coffee and tea, and use it often on toast, in apple butter, apple pie/crisp, chocolate soufflé, etc. It's strong, and spicy and sweet and so much better than that tasteless junk they sell in the supermarket.

winter I ordered a selection of dried chiles from them and ground a mixture for chili. It was amazing how much better it was than the pre-mixed grocery store chili powder and the chili was awesome. susan
