This Día de los Muertos Kyphi Ofrenda is a contemporary interpretation of Ancient Egyptian Kyphi recipes, using Central American ingredients to honour the dead. This kyphi is created to be placed on the Ofrenda (the home altar for the deceased, with offerings to honour the dead), as well as burnt in funerals and memorial ceremonies. Copal resin and Palo Santo are mixed with Yerba Santa, Lemon Verbena, cinnamon and vanilla, creating a soothing aromatic concoction that will feed even the hungriest lost souls.
Each raw material was ground separately, then they are all compounded together in a mixture of organic honey and raisins soaked in tequila. This not only binds together the ingredients but also creates an alchemical process that truly transforms the aroma of the incense and creates a heavenly smoke when burnt on a charcoal.
It can also be used by placing on an aromatherapy diffuser (place on a piece of aluminum foil to prevent it from sticking to your diffuser). If using a glazed ceramic or heat proof glass vessel for the incense, cleaning it with warm water and vinegar from time to time would suffice.

Newly formulated Palo Santo incense that is smooth and sweet, accentuating the soothing and warming properties of this magical wood, and highlighting its aesthetic qualities.
Palo Santo has a strong, affirmative presence, and on its own there is a certain sharpness to its resinous-woody-balsamic character. In this special incense blend, I have attempted to soften its rough edges, and bring forth a new quality I found in it while meditating on the wood alone: the thick smoke from smudging creates a feeling of being hugged from the inside, and a profound sense of being supported and cared for.
It is paired with sandalwood, vanilla, tonka bean, cinnamon and and a unique combination of wood binders that gives it a soft, sweet smoke and creates a warm, cozy feeling that will make your home feel cozy and protected.
Palo Santo is a sacred tree that grows in the Rainforests of Central and South America, where it has been used for time immemorial in smudging ceremonies and healing rituals. It is grounding, balancing, promotes mental health as it is both uplifting, energizing and protective. Palo Santo develops the essential oils and resin that give it its unique perfume only after the tree dies down, teaching us that even after death, separation and endings there is hope for beauty and strength.
Palo Santo incense cones are hand-rolled in the traditional East-Indian method, made only from finely ground botanicals: Palo santo wood, sandalwood, cinnamon, vanilla and tonka bean, and bound with natural gums or wood bark. No saltpetre or charcoal used in these cones.
Each box contains a dozen cones.
