Kousaido has emerged as a premium incense maker in Kyoto Japan, a city famed for its rich history and peaceful temple gardens.  Each of their incense sticks start with traditional sandalwood and has a distinctive purpose - to relax, to inspire, to uplift.

We believe it's important to stand behind true artisans, embracing the beauty of slow design and artisanal production—as an advocate, champion, and consumer. Our artisan partner's quality of life—and ability to sustain themselves and their communities—will always be our top priority as a company.
