Aloeswood stammer fra en familie af nåletræer, som, når den angribes af en bestemt bakterie, danner en duftende harpiks. I Japan kaldes et sådant 'angrebet' træ for Jinkoh, der betyder 'træ, der synker i vand' fordi det bliver så tungt af harpiks. Denne harpiksrøgelse bruges ved traditionelle japanske ritualer og åbner for en meget rig og kompleks verden af duft, når den brændes.
Eiju Jinkoh Aloeswood incense is a calming and mystical blend of incense created in Japan by Nippon Kodo.
Jinkoh is renowned as being a superior grade of aloeswood that’s used to make high quality incense. The name Jinkoh translates into English as meaning ‘sinking wood’ as this type of aloeswood isn’t able to float like other woods do.
The Eiju Jinkoh Aloeswood incense has a special scent that cleverly combines calming sandalwood and aloeswood with Eastern notes of exotic patchouli. The result is a fragrance that’s slightly spicy and has a mystical quality to it that adds a new dimension to the Jinkoh aloeswood.
This could be a good choice of incense to burn whilst conducting healing work, such as working on raising your vibrations or practicing reiki.
Eiju means ‘long life’ and is the name given to a popular brand of Japanese incense made by Nippon Kodo.
In Japan, Eiju incense is regularly used for religious purposes and is burned during ceremonies and rituals.

More About Japanese Incense
Japanese incense (speaking in general terms) is refined, pure, light smoke and rich in natural ingredients such as sandalwood. They don't usually have the thin wooden stick centre that is often found in Indian and other incense sticks. They are normally pure incense right the way through the stick. They are often designed with meditation in mind. Due to the high quality manufacturing processes the incense goes through they can be a little bit more expensive than other incense on the market.
