Govinda® Frankincense Resin Gum Tears Quality A 1 lb by Govinda®

This product is incredibly bitter, bitterness is a clear example of poor quality Frankincense. Bitterness is caused by poor quality resin, improper burning method, or incorrect harvesting time. Stay well clear if you are purchasing this for health benefits! Avoid at all costs or prepare to be severely disappointed just as I am.

What can I say? The Wise men brought it to a baby as a gift when it was valued more than GOLD. I use it as an offering to the Creator of the universe and I value it more than GOLD because of that fact. You can burn it with Hooka coals as I do and you will probably develop it into a habit due to the amazing smell. People will search for where the amazing smell is coming from and you can share your connection to the creator with his creation. The Arab's called it the tears of the trees, the INCA called Copal, the blood and tears of the tree's. How's that for wise men? It seems to awaken something deep within your being when you think of who was given it as a child. 3 Wise Men can't be all wrong. Take it to the mountains and offer it and see what miracles the creator sends your way. Stay strong and live long, Regards, Nobody Special P.S. I gifted some to a man who's wife had stage 4 cancer and a month to live. The Creator had a different prognosis for her. That was a year ago. Praise the Creator for that, not me and not the Frankincense.

One cannot go past ..GOVINDA.........BEAUTIFUL PRODUCT

C'est parfait c'est ce que je recherchais ça brûle très bien et puissant Merci :)

Note to all people who buy Omani and Somalian frankincense known as Boswellia carterii and Boswellia sacra, and to those who are used to "hojari" frankincense from that tree. This frankincense is the species Boswellia papyrifera. It has a somewhat clear to tan/orange color and a citrusy scent. It is not the same as B. sacra and smells quite different, so if you know what to expect you will likely enjoy it. The resins from these species are different, and it seems some other shoppers don't know that and are disappointed in their reviews. Finally, mine came sealed in a better bag than what is pictured and smells quite nice with low heating.
