SHOYEIDO INCENSE - PALO SANTO GIFT SET
Regular price $26.00/

Over 1,400 years ago, a large piece of fragrant driftwood washed ashore on the tiny Japanese island of Awaji. Realizing the uniqueness of the marvelous fragrance emanating from the wood, island locals presented it as a gift to the Empress Suiko. With this gift of precious agarwood began a new era of refinement of — and appreciation for — the enjoyment of fragrance.
In the early 18th century, Rokubei Moritsune Hata began incorporating incense-making techniques he learned as an employee of Kyoto's Imperial Palace. He would eventually introduce a new world of scent to an audience beyond the realm of royalty.
Twelve generations later, the Hata family continue to create an amazing array of fragrances. Shoyeido incense is considered the highest quality, most natural incense available on Earth.
Shoyeido's blending process is an art form. Highly trained "masters" draw upon centuries-old secrets to create masterworks of fragrance. These artisans carefully process the quality, balance, and ratio of every hand-selected natural ingredient. The slightest variation in amount or quality of any component can dramatically influence the outcome. Only the finest raw materials are used. The results are remarkable, subtle scents that beckon us to use all of our senses — what the Japanese call mon-koh, or "listening to incense."
Explore the mysteries of Palo Santo -- now in the subtle, pure style of Shoyeido Japanese Incense.
This South American "holy wood" has been used in medicine and spiritual practice since the days of the Inca. With notes evocative of citrus, pine, and aged wood, Palo Santo ascends as a new favorite fragrance among incense enthusiasts.
This new recipe is truly a must-try incense for anyone interested in Palo Santo and the endless possibilities of natural, Japanese incense!
This beautiful new gift set pairs 35 sticks of Palo Santo incense with a sleek, glazed ceramic incense holder, in an elegant paper box with a window — the perfect, all-in-one way to enjoy the experience of Palo Santo.
