Natural frankincense resin, sourced from sustainable forests in Tigray Region, Ethiopia.  Frankincense, also called Olibanum, produces a natural fruity, flowery and  slightly pine-lemon fragrance.

Suitable for people with asthma and allergies.

High quality frankincense, made by the monks in the Holy Great Monastery of Vatopedi on Mount Athos. The handmade incense is produced based on old recipes, which the Athonite fathers improved throughout the years.  The natural frankincense – incense as it is known nowadays – is a recent development (about 40 years ago) and it comes from the mix of natural ground frankincense with aromas of specific proportions.  Source:  www.monastiriaka.gr

The Eothina (a Greek word for “dawn”) are 11 gospels of the resurrection that constitute a weekly revolving liturgical cycle. One of these 11 gospels is recited at the completion of Orthros (in ancient times, as the sun rose).  Source:  blackwellreference.com

Features:  Quick-lighting charcoal for the home censer.  Handmade charcoal.

Burn Duration:  Approximately 20-40 minutes, depending on size of charcoal disk.  The disk may be cut into smaller pieces for shorter burn time.

Safety Tips:

• Do not burn incense unattended. Children should not use charcoal unattended.
• This charcoal contains a small amount of gunpowder to help it ignite more quickly. Use caution when igniting your charcoal; a long grill-style lighter is highly recommended. Avoid contact with sparks.
• Keep flammable items away from burning charcoal.
• Empty your charcoal ash regularly, after the ash has cooled completely. As the charcoal and incense were offered in prayer, it is customary to bury the ash in a place where it will not be walked on.
