Shin Mainichi-Koh Sandalwood Incense (80 Sticks)

Description

Shin Mainichi-Koh Sandalwood incense is a Japanese incense made by Nippon Kodo.
The incense sticks come in a pack of 80 and are longer in length than a standard incense stick, so they have a longer burning time too. The incense is made with a selection of natural herbs and plant extracts, so the sandalwood fragrance has a distinctive woody and floral aroma that makes it stand apart from other plain sandalwood incenses. 
It’s a calming and purifying scent and is designed with moments of quietness and reflection in mind. It’s an ideal choice of incense to burn whilst you’re meditating, practicing yoga or tai chi movements, plus you get the bonus of a longer burn time too.

In fact, Nippon Kodo say that, through the production of their traditional Japanese incense they aim to, ‘cherish the ancient traditions and values’. The ingredients of Nippon Kodo incense are all high quality and are sourced from around the world.

Once acquired, the ingredients are processed by hand, and by machine, in their eight factories in Japan and Hong Kong.More About Japanese IncenseJapanese incense (speaking in general terms) is refined, pure, light smoke and rich in natural ingredients such as sandalwood.
