Latest Market Information April 15, 2025
Vietnam is a significant producer of cassia with cultivations concentrated in the mountainous regions of Yen Bai and Quang Nam provinces. Cassia trees thrive in tropical climates with high humidity and rainfall. They prefer well-drained, fertile soils, often found on slopes. Year round warm temperatures are essential for its growth.
Steam distillation of dried bark yields cassia oil. Its robust flavour and aroma make it a popular and versatile ingredient. Cassia oil is used as a flavouring agent in food and beverages. It is also used by the fragrance industry to create formulations for perfumes and soaps. Production of oil is underway with sufficient raw material supply to meet demand until the next harvest cycle in April 2025. Cassia is harvested twice a year, between April to June and September to December. There is adequate oil supply in the market, but the demand is lower than expected. This has resulted in a decrease in price.
