Description
Finally back in stock. This new shipment of Royal Green Hojari Frankincense from Oman is one of the most delightfully fragrant we have had.
Considered the premier Frankincense of Oman, this shipment of Royal Green Hojari is indeed a particularly beautiful and fragrant resin.
Traditionally reserved for medicine, high-end incense and tea, these large succulent pieces share a green cast and a delightful sweet citrus scent.
It takes many Kilograms of regular Omani Frankincense resin to collect a handful of the prized “Royal Hojari. In turn, it takes many Kilograms of Royal Hojari Frankincense to gather a handful of the coveted green Frankincense tears.
During the sorting process which involves women of the community for much of the year, each tear of Frankincense is graded by size shape and colour.
The cream of the crop are the large green-tinted tears that show up occasionally in each sorters pile and are considered the best of the best, reserved for medicine, special occasions and royalty.
With a delicately sweet, Piney, minty, citrus note, the scent of this resin suits its unique colour.
A staple of churches, Mosques and temples around the world, Frankincense Sacra resin is traditionally used as incense and medicine.
Frankincense Sacra from Arabia and Oman is one of the 5 frankincense types that contain Boswellic acids. These are therapeutically active compounds that have been in the news a lot the past decade and are thought to be behind the plethora of conditions addressed with Frankincense in traditional medicine.
Boswellia Sacra Royal Green Hojari is ideal for the preparation of incense blends, therapeutic oils, salves, cremes and tinctures. In many Arabian cultures, it is infused overnight in water, ( a teaspoon of tears to a cup of room temperature water), and sipped throughout the following day for its therapeutic qualities. You can find the tincture and the oleo-extract of this resin in the shop.
It is easy to work with and its beautiful fragrance follows it through every product you make.

Please note our ounces are 30 grams, not the 25 grams offered by many other sellers. To this generous ounce, we ALWAYS add a bit more and NEVER less to our packages. Something our customers have come to count on.

Botanically, Boswellia Sacra from Arabia and Boswellia Carterii from East Africa are considered the same species. However, visually, aromatically and chemically they set themselves apart from each other. For this reason, I distinguish this resin from Oman as Boswellia Sacra.

Bought it for incense but tried it orally in a capsule and it within a few hours it removed completely the swelling within my knee that has had a problem for years. I will be buying kilograms of frankincense in the near future so I am never without.
This Green Hued variety has a very citrus smell. It's great all around. A+++

The product performs well. That said, it is only very slightly green. My batch may have been the anomaly but it was definitely more traditional in color than I was expecting based on the photos. Since this is my first time with this type of resin, I’m not sure what affect that has on the scent profile.

The seller quickly and securely shipped my package out, which is all I can really ask for. I wasn't sure what to expect as I've never purchased frankincense before but I was very pleased with what I got. The smell is lovely. I like how some of the pieces really do look like teardrops.

This is just such a fun and wonderful place to shop! It is exciting to anticipate the arrival of your order – and wonderful when it arrives!
Dan helped me come closer to solving a puzzle of sorts. Some time ago, I was gifted a beautiful, unlabeled bottle of frankensence oil. I loved the scent, but after it was gone, and having no knowledge of frankensence, I bought several commercial frankincense EO's – none of which smelled anything like it. It would cost a small fortune to buy a bazillion types of the EO. So, wala, I shopped Dan’s store and got several small amounts of Frankincense resin from different regions – concentrating on Oman in light of the gifter. And, eureka! W Dan's help and my pallet of resins I was able to narrow it down with a very high degree of surety…it originated from Oman, Boswellia S, for sure.

This store is amazing. I was so amazed with the quality of these items that I had to buy some other stuff and I can’t wait for it to arrive. Truly the most top quality frankincense and myrrh that I think money can buy. Nothing but 5 stars.
