Created in collaboration with Xin Yue Workshop,
this Hongtou Qirou aloeswood stick incense set
pairs with a beautiful mountainscape censer.

This set of 8cm sticks of incense includes one hardwood tube of incense and custom mountainscape bamboo censer. with magnetic latch and three-in-one stand.

Our new custom aloeswood blend collaboration with Xin Yue workshop and researcher Chen Long Bin uses a combination of two aloeswoods - high end hongtu Vietnamese aloeswood for the salty smoldering qualities and a touch of Qirou aloeswood for the cooling undertones - all blended specifically to pair with tea.

The incense is rich, thick and honeyed with a touch of cooling cedar, which builds up with the iconic saltiness of Vietnamese aloeswood evoking eucalytpus and ocean mist. The sweet depth has a smoldering intensity of star anise, goji berry and cardamom.

This set is paired with a gorgeous mountainscape censer-box so that incense smoke wafting out looks like clouds and mist passing through the mountains.

The box set comes with 14 sticks of special aloeswood in a wooden travel canister, a carved incense burner and stand. Each stick is about a 20 minute burn, but the aroma lingers all day. 

Includes: 8cm each / 20 sticks
Includes: hardwood incense canister, bamboo censor with magentic latch, three-size incense stand
Duration: approximately 20 minutes

Ingredients: special grade Vietnamese Qirou aloeswood, Singapore Hongtu aloeswood, natural camphor wood binder
