Maestro Cimet mleti (Ground Cinnamon)

Maestro is a well-established brand of spices and seasonings synonymous with high quality in the Adriatic region. The product shown is 'Cimet mleti', which is ground cinnamon, a staple in both sweet and savory culinary applications. The brand's products are known for their '100% natural' claim, focusing on pure ingredients without artificial additives.

The Maestro brand is owned and produced by Žito d.o.o., a cornerstone of the Slovenian food industry with a history dating back to the mid-20th century. While the raw spices like cinnamon are sourced globally from tropical climates (such as Indonesia or Vietnam), the processing, quality control, and packaging are centered in Slovenia.

In 2015, Žito was acquired by the Croatian multinational food group Podravka. This acquisition integrated Maestro into one of the largest food conglomerates in South-Eastern Europe. Today, the brand continues to operate under the Podravka umbrella, benefiting from its extensive distribution network across Europe and beyond.
