Japanese Incense
Japanese Incense is more mild than most other types of incense, and high quality Japanese incense is often called Koh. The highest quality incense is usually made out of aloeswood or sandalwood, and can cost hundreds, or even thousands of dollars per box. Fortunately, you won't have to spend that much for quality Japanese Incense here.
What makes Japanese Incense different is that it doesn't have a bamboo stick in the middle. Hence, the incense is less pungent that other non-Japanese scents. The most popular type of Japanese Incense is Morning Star, which is made by Nippon Kodo, a well respected manufacturer of Japanese style stick and cone incense.
