INCI: Boswellia serrata

Frankincense Raw Resin is made up of raw, hardened resin “tears” harvested from the Boswellia serrata tree. When warmed or burned, it releases a classic resinous aroma that is citrusy, pine-leaning and softly balsamic. The whole tears are ideal for charcoal incense, oil warmers and traditional aromatic rituals. They can also be steeped to create a fragrant resin infusion, or gently chewed in small pieces as a traditional practice.

This product is certified: Vegan and Food Grade.

Also available in large pack sizes.

Q: Does the resin dissolve fully in hot water?
A: No. It softens and perfumes the water, but it does not fully dissolve, so straining is important.

Q: What is the difference between whole tears and resin powder?
A: Whole tears are easier to portion for charcoal and oil warmers, while powder is often used for cones, blends and faster release on charcoal.

Q: How should it be stored to keep the aroma fresh?
A: Keep it sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and strong odours.
