Nha Trang Aloeswood - Incense sticks

Nha Trang Aloeswood | 芽庄沉香    「Classic Single Scent

Vietnam’s Nha Trang region is highly regarded for its superior quality aloeswood, with the Nha Trang aloeswood being the most famous of the Hui’an aloeswood family. Also known as agarwood, jinkoh in Japanese, and oud in Arabic, aloeswood is a classic scent worldwide, and has been revered in Chinese incense culture since the opening of the silk road.

Our Nha Trang aloeswood incense comes from a highly experienced, second generation Chinese incense craftsman. The quality of the raw ingredients is meticulously controlled, as aloeswood pieces are carefully selected and then hand ground into powder in his studio.

The final hand-made incense sticks are the best we’ve ever smelt without breaking the bank – a warm, complex scent that is milky with a touch of cool, radiating from the stick almost as soon as it is lit.

Due to the very high cost of aloeswood, Nha Trang aloeswood is only available in stick form. These are also slightly thinner than other incense sticks in our Premium Collection.

The making of all natural incense sticks for the Kin Premium Collection

The Kin Premium Incense Collection

A Collection of Handmade, All Natural Incense

The Kin Premium Incense collection is a collection of premium incense exclusively hand-made in small scale studios. Part of the collection is from our own studio, the remainder is hand-selected from experienced Chinese artisans that we know and trust.

Like all of our products, the Premium Incense collection is rooted in thousands of years of traditional Chinese incense culture. Part of the collection closely follows traditional recipes from the archetypal Chinese incense book History of Incense《香乘》, written almost 500 years ago in the Yuan dynasty; these we call the Re-interpreted blends. Part of the collection are our own creations, using ingredients and blends with modern, non-Chinese influences – these we call the Imagined blends. There is also a focus on precious single scents like aloeswood (otherwise known as agarwood, oud or jinkoh) – these we call the Classic single scents.  

The Perfect Accompaniment for Daily Rituals

The Kin Premium Incense collection contains no artificial ingredients or enhancements. They are made from all natural, hand-selected ingredients, chosen because they were the absolute best we could find at reasonable prices.

The binding powder used is Indonesian nanmu powder, a wood-based binder popular in Chinese incense, and where the Japanese makko or tabu no ki powder derives from.

All of the Kin Premium Incense are carefully enclosed in Wutong wood boxes painted with traditional Chinese red ink. Wutong is a type of wood popular for storing incense in East Asia, due to its superior anti-mold and anti-moisture properties.

Indulge in a stick of natural incense, gift yourself a moment of calm.
