Takimono Pressed Incense Tablets

These 12 pressed incense tablets (薫物- takimono) can be gently heated over charcoal or on an electric incense heater to release their classic aroma without the smoke from burning incense sticks. A blend of herbs and spices, this pressed incense has a similar aromatic profile to nerikō (練香 - kneaded incense) At low heat, they can be appreciated personally, while at higher temperatures, they will release some smoke, but will perfume a large space.

Each sachet contains 1 block of takimono which can be broken into 12 tablets.

This Japanese item ships from the United States.
