These incense cones are made from the finest herbs and woods – mixed with the fragrant resin of the black pine tree from Austria. Many herbs are wildly collected in the meadows and forests of the “Waldweihrauch” organic farm, some they grow themselves. For their incense cones they use pure charcoal from a traditional Austrian charcoal burner “Waldweihrauch vom Bregahof”. The binder is “Makko” from the Asian incense tradition. That’s all – these incense cones contain no synthetic fragrances or additives!
People used to experience the change in nature more directly than they do today. In Central Europe, the course of the seasons was often symbolized by an eight-spoke wheel. Festivals were celebrated on the days between the seasons, often during the days of the full moon. These eight incense cones are formed from herbs each associated with such a transitional period. When smoked, they unfold scents that are reminiscent of those times.
Some plants that were traditionally used for smoking grow in Central Europe. These incense cones contain some great incense herbs, with the black pine as the basis connecting the different compositions. The “Between Times” incense cones contain 8 different types/boxes, each with 3 incense cones and 4 matches. The incense cones are approximately 4cm tall and 1cm wide at the base. The burning time is 15-25 minutes depending on the composition.

Application: Place incense cones on a fireproof surface and light at the top. Blow out the flame and let it die down. The smoldering of the incense cone is one of the most gentle ways to smoke. The scent arises in the zone directly below the embers. Please do not inhale directly over the cone, that is too intense. If you are sensitive to smoke, let the incense cone die down and then ventilate the room. The scent will linger a little longer.
Notes: Use incense cones only under supervision; Caution – very hot! Allow ash to cool before removing; Keep away from children; Not for consumption; Watch out for possible allergic reactions with the natural flavorings; Incense cones can be kept indefinitely when stored dry.
