Regular price $12.00
Description

Experience the true fragrance of sandalwood (byakudan - 白檀) in its natural form. Sweet, rich, and creamy; sandalwood is one of the foundational materials of Japanese incense.

These sandalwood chips can be heated over ash and charcoal in the traditional manner, or enjoyed more conveniently with an electric incense heater. At lower heat, they can be appreciated personally, while at higher temperatures, they will release some smoke, but will perfume a large space. They can be cut to smaller sizes as desired, with only a small amount needed to enjoy or perfume a space.

Each sachet contains ~2g of chips (approximately 20-25 chips) which can be cut to smaller sizes as desired, with only a small amount needed to enjoy or perfume a space.

This Japanese item ships from the United States. 

Founded in 1772, Yamadamatsu Kōboku-ten (山田松香木店) is one of Japan's most respected incense houses. As their name suggests, they have long specialised in kōboku - the aromatic woods of sandalwood, aloeswood, and kyara which form the heart of Japanese incense culture. Their original recipes lean heavily on the exquisite quality of their raw ingredients and the ingenuity and creativity with which they combine them to form unforgettable aromas.
