◾️ Product Origin and Historical Background
✔︎ The Sacred Role of Hemp: Since ancient times, hemp has been considered a plant that "warded off evil" and "dwelt with the gods" and is an essential part of Shinto rituals, weddings, and funerals. Hemp's rapid growth and rooting are also symbols of growth and prosperity, and it has been believed to bring good luck and good fortune.
✔︎ Hemp and Japanese Tradition: Hemp is used in traditional Japanese cultural and milestone ceremonies. Hemp has played an important role in many occasions, such as the shimenawa of shrines, the shimenawa of yokozuna (sumo wrestlers), the iwata obi (belt), and kyoshiraga (joint white hair).

This product offers a recreation of the hemp culture nurtured in Japan's long history and deep culture, in a form that can be easily incorporated into modern life. Its sacred fragrance and smoke not only purify the place, but also bring a sense of calm and peace of mind to the user. Please experience a part of the ancient Japanese hemp culture through this incense.
