Copal Resin Incense Bag

$4.99

Copal symbolizes purification and connection to the divine. When lit, it invites a sense of peace, clarity, and protection, helping to create sacred spaces for reflection and growth, ideal for burning on charcoal or in specialized incense burners.

Copal incense is derived from the resin of trees belonging to the Burseraceae family, particularly species such as Protium copal. The resin is skillfully harvested from these trees and transformed into a suitable form for burning as incense.

Characterized by a light, sweet, and woody aroma, copal incense is often likened to frankincense, though it features a muskier undertone. It is available in different colors, including white, yellow, and brown, each possessing unique characteristics and applications.
