The Seven Herbs of the Peruvian Wanchako Incense
This natural incense set is made of 100% Palo Santo wood blended with seven Andean herbs: rosemary, muna, thyme, wiracoa, wallpa chaqui, romerillo and eucalyptus. The blend is pressed without glue or additives, so you receive a truly clean and natural aromatic experience. The box contains twelve packs with four sticks per pack – a total of forty-eight sticks for long-lasting enjoyment.
How to Use the Sticks at Home
You can place the sticks in a traditional incense holder or stand them in a suitable shell. Each stick burns for an average of twenty-five to thirty minutes, giving you plenty of time to settle in, read or have a deeper conversation with your family. Meanwhile your home will be wrapped in a lasting, refreshing fragrance.
A Short Introduction to the Andean Herbs
Rosemary and thyme add a fresh, spicy note, eucalyptus creates a clear atmosphere, while muna is a well-known herb of Peruvian cuisine and traditional remedies. Wiracoa, wallpa chaqui and romerillo are native Andean plants that complement the resinous fragrance of Palo Santo with a deep, earthy tone. With a single stick you experience a full Peruvian aromatic profile.
SERFOR-Certified Ethical Harvesting
The Palo Santo wood is gathered from forests supervised by the Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation of Peru. Only branches that have fallen naturally and rested for three to four years are processed – this is when their aroma fully matures. No living tree is cut down to make the sticks, so you can use them with peace of mind to refresh the air in your home.
Storage and Eco-Friendly Packaging
The box arrives in plastic-free cardboard packaging that is easy to recycle after use. Keep the sticks in a dry, cool place in their original box so the aroma of the seven herbs is preserved for a long time. After lighting, blow out the flame and let the stick smoulder, which allows the smoke to release evenly.
