Seiun is a type of Japanese incense made by Nippon Kodo. It’s one of their top brands of incense and the aromatic scents are designed to be, “an inspiration to greatness.”
The incense fragrances reflect this aim, with some very calming scents that are ideal for having on in the background whilst engaging in contemplative meditation, and other more refreshing aromas that could help clear a foggy head and encourage greater clarity. The design on the packaging features an image of, “The Blue Cloud” over Mount Fuji – a Japanese symbol of a bright future.
Seiun incense is made using a higher amount of charcoal, which means that it burns at a hotter temperature and produces far less smoke.

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.
