Introduction to Incense Ceremony
Enjoying the aroma of wood
This parlor game popularized by the Kyoto aristocracy dates back to the 14th century. It involves warming an aromatic piece of wood indirectly to enjoy and contemplate the produced scents. At HOSHINOYA Kyoto, guests are provided with high-quality agarwood, as well as the traditional tools that were used to draw out the aromas from the wood.
