Experience the feeling of being an artisan using the incense kit.

The incense industry has been cultivated for over 170 years on Awaji Island.
While its methods are simple, they are profound, and each company has developed while inheriting secret blending recipes.
An experience kit has been created to learn the “ABCs” of incense making, filled with the skills and pride of Awaji Island artisans.
The kneaded incense can be shaped using gypsum molds or freely formed by hand or cookie cutters.
Enjoy making incense inspired by your own ideas, and feel free to start with ease.

The contents of the incense kit allow you to craft your own incense at home by just adding water.
Place all the ingredients in a mortar and mix them slowly with a pestle.
Press the kneaded mixture into the gypsum mold. After removing it, let it dry for about a week before use.
