Hinoki is a Japanese cypress tree. Powders from the leaves and bark provide a very distinctive aroma. It is similar to other aromatic trees like cedar, pine and juniper, but hinoki has a sweetness that is very soothing and inviting.
Hinoki is an excellent aroma for meditation or to soothe stress or negative emotions.
Chie incense is all natural, has no bamboo core, and burns cleanly, with almost no smoke.
Chie is a collection of genuine incense made from natural aromatic ingredients crafted by Nippon Kodo, one of the most revered and experienced incense makers in the world; it was founded in 1575.
Chie means the ability to see things as they really are and to recognize the truth. Inspired by Buddhism, the Chie circle is painted with a single stroke in Zen calligraphy. It is said that the circle represents the infinite, the beginning and end of everything, enlightenment, psychology, and the universe as a whole.
