Japanese Incense | Koh-Do | Zen (Spicy Aloeswood) | 20 stick box | Low Smoke

Koh-Do* Incense – traditional high-quality incense, in small, affordable and attractive boxes. Koh-Do Zen and Koh-Do Samurai are the only 2 varieties in this range which are made by Baieido - a traditional Japanese Incense company, renowned for their deep, warm and spicy fragranced incense. 

These Zen incense sticks come from Baieido and are from their Tokusen Kobunboku incense stick range. They are based on Vietnamese Aloeswood, blended with Chinese Herbs and Spices - which makes for a fragrance which is rich, dark, spicy and complex. 

'Tokusen' means Premium and 'Kobunboku' is an expression of Plum Tree blossom. This flower is well known as "The flower of peace" from ancient China.

**This is the smallest and introductory product from Baieido within their Token Kobunboku Incense (Spicy Aloeswood) range - see below for the (2) other items in this range that Vectis Karma stock.

* Koh-Do incense offers an ideal introduction into the world of Japanese Incense, and an ideal choice for those wanting to try new fragrances before purchasing a large box. Using Nippon Kodo incense, each Koh-Do box is ‘linked’ to a large box – varying in quantity from 220 to 480 depending on fragrance. See the Nippon Kodo ‘Large Box’ section of the shop for more details.

 ✓    The Koh-Do range is ideal for trying new fragrances, before committing to a larger, more costly box of Japanese Incense

Much care has been placed in the design of the Koh-Do boxes – all based on Japanese masterpieces. This echoes the importance the Japanese place on incense burning or ‘listening to incense’. Koh-Do is one of the ‘Geido’ or Fine Arts in Japanese culture, along with ‘Ikebana’ (flower arranging), ‘Shodo’ (Japanese calligraphy), ‘Sado’ (Japanese Tea ceremony), ‘Yakimono’ (Japanese pottery) and ‘Noh’ (traditional Japanese theatre).
