Be transported to an autumn walk through a Scottish forest with the scent of pine, tree resins and juniper and woodland botanicals with our Forester Loose Incense.

 

Our Saining Loose Incense is inspired by our Scottish tradition of Saining. Saining is an old Scots word for blessing, protecting, or consecrating using smoke, words, water or actions.

 

Traditionally in Scotland, there are four Fire Festivals, two being well-known Beltaine (May Day) and Samhain (Halloween). In the past (and still found in some communities and families) the community would come together around a bonfire and the smoke would act as purification and protection against the ill will of both humans and the otherworld.

 

Smoke acts as a purification and protection in many cultures around the world. Our loose incense is mixed with local Woodland botanicals, homegrown herbs, barks, Juniper and Scots Pine essential Oils and resins.

 

INGREDIENTS 

Frankincense & Myrrh Resins, Sandalwood,  Scots Pine Needles*, Elder Leaf* Bramble Leaf*, Orange Peel, Juniper Berry, Heather Flower, Sage*, Wild Rose*, Juniper & Scots Pine Essential Oils. * Homegrown or foraged

Also contains naturally occurring essential oil compounds: Limonene

 

Our Loose Incense is handcrafted in Scotland in small batches and is all-natural, vegan, ethically foraged and organically homegrown botanicals, sustainably sourced resins, barks, botanicals and essential oils. Presented in a 60ml glass Jar. (approx 15g of loose incense)
