Overview:
40 bricks/cones.
Scent profile:
Hickory is one of the most popular woods for burning in fireplaces because it is a dense hardwood and provides excellent heat and burn time. Similar to Mesquite the Hickory is used to flavour meats when cooking barbeque. Hickory wood is known for its strength and robustness and the fragrance is along that same vein. Smoky, aweet and savoury, but subtle and not overbearing. Some people describe it as an earthy aroma.
This is Incienso de Santa Fe’s only incense that doesn’t come from the western part of the USA. This tree grows mostly in the southeast. It is a tall tree that has a shaggy bark when mature.
How do I light an Incense Brick? These bricks/cones are larger than most incense cones, making them harder to light. The upside to this is that they burn longer and produce more incense. Hold the cone over a flame until the cone burns by itself. This will cause the cone to expand at the burning end. After the cone has stopped flaming, gently blow on the burning ember. Place the cone in the centre of the censer (or incense burner), unlit end down. If the cone should fall over or is laid on its side, the flame may go out.
Materials: 100% natural hickory wood and fragrance. Incienso de Sante Fe don’t cut down trees to make their product. They use trees that are already dead.
