The incense originates from wide areas of tropical regions, including South East Asia. For example, aloeswood originate from Vietnam and Borneo, sandalwoods come from India, and cassias are from China. The incense offers various effects. It purifies the air and sets our mind at ease. It also has some medicinal effects - in fact, initially, people used to use it as herb medicine.

We are happy to present here very extensive selection of top Japanese incense, and say that our search for the purest, finest quality incense has been successful! After evaluating and comparing incense from various countries and manufacturers, we found Japanese incense to be the finest of all. Its higher than average price is fully justified by the outstanding quality. Generous use of aloeswood makes them particularly desirable among experts. (The price of kyara, top quality aloeswood, is higher than gold!) We are sure that after your first encounter with Japanese incense, you will agree with us, and join the expert group of connoisseurs who just won't settle for anything less than the best, authentic Japanese incense.
