Frankincense Incense Sticks - Box of 40

Two materials. Frankincense is the resin of the Boswellia tree, the material so tied to incense that the word frankincense once meant "pure incense." Himalayan juniper adds a sharp, green, coniferous lift on top. The workshop grinds the resin and juniper with natural binders and rolls them by hand into a solid stick, with no bamboo core.

Common questions

What kind of frankincense is this?
The resin of the Boswellia tree, paired here with Himalayan juniper for a sharp, green lift.

Is it natural, with no synthetic fragrance?
Yes. Made from natural materials and non-toxic.

Does it have a bamboo core?
No. It is a solid hand-rolled stick.

How long does each stick burn, and how many in a box?
About 20 minutes per stick, 40 sticks per box.

1. Hold the tip to a flame until it catches (5–10 seconds).
2. Blow the flame out so the stick smoulders.
3. Place in an incense holder on a heat-safe surface.
4. Allow the ash to cool fully before clearing.

The green juniper opens first, then the clean, resinous frankincense settles in beneath it and holds across the burn.

Burns approximately 20 minutes per stick. Burn on a heat-safe surface, away from anything that can catch, and never leave unattended.

Frankincense is the resin most associated with incense itself. It comes from the Boswellia tree and has been burned and traded across the world as one of the most valued aromatic materials there is. Here it is paired with Himalayan juniper, the sharp evergreen of the Nepali mountains, which keeps it bright. Hand-rolled in the Kathmandu Valley from natural materials.
