Garuda

Himalayan Scents: Offering Series 2 grams per tube: approx 30 min burn time per stick (Sept 2026 batch) During my trip to Taiwan I was fortunate to find some really excellent materials here and there. One was a special little container of blended incense powder from the Himalayas. I recognized the character and qualities of these and proceeded to make this unique incense. There are quite a few ingredients, specially processed and blended, such as camphor, our "Stanford" Himalayan cedar, and aloeswood. Garuda is a category of great winged Dharma protector in East Asian Buddhism and Hinduism and so an incense like this has an "offering" like resonance. This unique blend has a lot of projection & dimensionality in larger spaces, with its spicy woody herbaceous, sweet undertones. Really a unique aromatic experience.
