Indian incense is very different from incense made in the U.S.

Here in the U.S. most incense is made with a blank stick (punk), dipped in oil. The quality of the oil and the length the stick is soaked is what makes the difference in the quality of the incense.

 

Indian incense is made by creating a type of slurry of oils and resins, this is then hand rolled around a wood stick. This is incense that is made entirely of resins & natural ingredients -- nothing synthetic. This method allows for very different scents and a distinctive quality that some love. Indian incense has been made this way for hundreds of years. This is what is considered “traditional” incense. It’s more like the incense that has been burned for centuries in temples & that which has been used for ceremonial purposes. The fragrance of natural    incense is VERY different than oil-dipped incense.

 

The method of preparation is similar to bread making. First, all the dry powders are weighed and placed together in a large tub in separate piles. Then the tree gum is dissolved with the oil. The dry powders are mixed together and the tree gum/oil mixture is added to the dry mixture. The ingredients are thoroughly mixed together by hand until the oils are completely absorbed. Water is added to this mixture and it is kneaded to a dough-like consistency called Atta. The Atta and a bamboo stick are rolled together on a board until the stick is coated with the fragrant mixture. The sticks are then dried in the sun.

 

Some people prefer it, and some don’t.  We recommend that you try some & see how you like it. 

 

 

This is Goloka brand Indian incense.

 

Goloka Nag Champa is a unique blend of rare herbs, flowers, resins, oils & forest products, free from toxic materials, which brings you a safe and natural experience. Let the pure fragrance of Goloka Nag Champa incense gently waft into your life and fill you with peace and devotion within, and with this wonderful creation.

 

(Each box states: “Goloka Seva Trust is aiding charitable activities by contributing to unique programs like Akshaya Patra (a program for providing mid-day meals to under-privileged school children in rural & corporation schools.) and Akshaya Vastra (a program to distribute clothing to under-privileged school children ”)

 

This is a 100 gram box of their Nag Champa.

Because it is hand made and uses natural ingredients. Indian incense is counted by weight. Normally 1 stick can equal 3/4 to 1-1/2 grams a stick.
