Shanthimalai Nag Champa - from the sacred mountain Arunachala in Tamil Nadu, India. This Nag Champa has a rich deep note aroma. This superbly pure incense is made to uncompromising quality standards. Purchase of Shanthimalai Nag Champa directly benefits village women trained in the art of creating incense sticks through Shanthimalai Research & Development Trust. Projects fostered by this trust offer training and employment for widows, abandoned mothers and handicapped or unmarried women who previously could only hope to find work as heavy field or construction laborers. One 15 gram box.
My opinion is that this is one of the best classic Nag Champa sticks on the market. Definitely better than the popular blue box. I have tried many different Nag Champa incenses and this one is on the top of my list. It has a deep, rich, creamy and sweet Nag Champa aroma. I am going to say the bar is set high with Shanthimalai. You would be hard pressed to find a more classic Nag Champa. It is a must have for the Nag Champa enthusiast.
I really like this incense. A true mala stick, with a heady, earthy scent. Not what I would usually consider a "nag", but I have grown to like it so much, it is a "regular order".
