Oman is known for its incredible resins, especially its Frankincense. The market is absolutely flooded with many grades which can make it difficult for the consumer to navigate. For this particular product we have done the sifting for you!
This particular grade has had every single tear handpicked with us in mind, it is our highest-grade Omani frankincense we offer, and comes from the Dhofar region.
This grade is very fresh, aromatic and extremely potent as a medicine. Considered a grade higher than what is burned for incense and is chiefly used internally for treatment. You can certainly still use it as incense as well, where it will deliver the cleanest Boswellia scent imaginable.
One of the ways the Omanis enjoy frankincense is to soak a few lumps in water and consume the aromatic water as a general tonic and purifying agent for the body. Arabs also enjoy soaking some lumps in Rose water and then using this infused preparation as a facial toner. The gum is also chewed, similar to myrrh by Arabs. One can also tincture the resin to create a very powerful medicinal agent.
Our frankincense supplier is a good friend of the founder, Talal, and has notable family members that have worked extensively in the conservation of many botanicals including Boswellia. His love for the plant and eagerness to preserve it makes him the ideal source for us to work with.
