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.

How to use

- As an Oil Warmer: Place 1 small tear in the dish with a little carrier oil and warm gently.
- As a Resin Infusion: Add 2-3 small tears to hot water, steep 5-10 minutes, then strain before drinking.
- As a Chew: Soften a very small piece in the mouth like gum, then discard. Do not swallow.

Faqs
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.
