Description
Green Frankincense Dalzielii. Usually a beautiful-looking Frankincense, This shipment has the extra attribute of having green tones, much like our Royal Green Hojari Frankincense but much less expensive.
It has wonderful notes of citrus, mint, pine and hints of stimulating Camphor.
This West African Frankincense is found in North Eastern Nigeria where the Hausa-speaking people refer to it as Hano or Harrabi. This shipment is made of the crème of the crop of Frankincense Dalzielii tears. Fresh, well-formed, large tears with a beautiful green hue. It is a beautiful material that exhibits the trademark fragrance of Boswellia Dalzielii -Orange/Citrus and Mint with earthy undertones. The locals use it as chewing gum and as incense. It can be used as many of the other types of Frankincense for incense, teas, oils, salves, tinctures and cremes. This is a premium quality Frankincense at a very reasonable price.
Boswellia Dalzielii is the most Western Frankincense species on what could be called the Boswellia Belt”, a latitudinal band of favourable growing conditions that runs from the Ivory Coast in the far west of Africa to the eastern Horn of Africa and continues on through Yemen and Oman all the way to India and Pakistan in the East.
There are about 18 species of Frankincense dispersed along this band. Though not all of them yield resin on a commercial scale, most have been used in traditional folk medicine in the areas they grow. This is the case with Boswellia Dalzielii who’s bark is used locally for many ailments including wound healing, Rheumatoid arthritis, gastrointestinal problems, and venereal diseases. To learn more Google “Boswellia Dalzielii studies”.
A staple of churches, Mosques and temples around the world, Frankincense resin is traditionally used as incense and medicine. Its essential oil is distilled for perfumery and aromatherapy.
Recent studies out of Germany show Nigerian Boswellia Dalzielii resin to have the highest percent of Boswellic acids among all the Frankincense types.

I am quickly becoming a regular shopper with Apothecary’s Garden and, once again, this last order did not disappoint! I am truly enjoying experiencing all of these new resins and there are some new favorites I discovered in this order-peruvian myrrh and siberian cedar, and oh my goodness the damask rosebuds are absolutely sublime. I am currently “steeping” some of the nigerian green frankincense I received with this order in an airtight jar with a scoop of the rosebuds! Quality, Shipping and packaging all top notch, and portions are clearly weighed on the generous side. Thank you so much, I can’t wait to order my next batch!

I really dug this one, visually pretty (candy-like, although I won't eat it) and very fragrant, big chunks. Great as always!

This is my 3rd purchase of resin, the first from this seller. I have not burned any yet, but everything is already so fragrant compared to the others. I wish my first two purchases were from Dan. I now understand people's love for opal. It's such a great, fresh scent. I don't even know what I received in the past.
I was curious how the resins weighed out. Everything I ordered was heavy. Dan has a "generous pour." This was a big purchase for me. I am delighted I went with Apothecary Garden. I can't wait to try them all.

has a nice bold flavor compared to the Hojari I have, I love both and this is very good. Has a minty slightly spicy overtone to it

I've enjoyed the Nigerian frankincense in the fresh resin, essential oil, and powdered. Now, this green batch is even a touch more extraordinary. See this picture and try some. It is really an extra special treat using this. Delivery was so fast that i was using it for days before my review date came up. Thank you Dan, and for the copal sample also.
