Incense resins are the original incense. The practice of burning resins which are simply solid fragrant resin harvested from various trees is thousands of years old. Burning resins was (and still is) an important part of religious and spiritual rituals and celebrations in many different cultures all around the world. Incense resins are burned on charcoal tablets. We recommend burning charcoal tablets on a bed of sand in a heatproof bowl.
