Boswellia Carterii Frankincense Tea
For our Frankincense Range, we've gone top of the line quality with a Fairtrade Somalian origin. Prized for their top quality resins, you won't find a higher quality than this.
One of the world's most prized resins is frankincense carterii (Boswellia Carterii) harvested in the mountains of Ufeyn, Bari, and Karkar, Puntland (Somalia).
Traditional artisanal tapping of mature Boswellia trees reveals resin tears that form naturally. When collected they are sun-dried and hand cleaned to retain purity and quality. This sustainable process yields a resin that is aromatic and culturally Puntland - based.
