In Taiwan, **arborvitae** is often treated merely as landscaping foliage, and modern applications primarily focus on scalp and hair care.
In ancient times, monks would craft "bai zi incense" from its leaves and fruit. That subtle woody fragrance could calm the mind.
The arborvitae leaves collected this time have been steeped for seven days in **Kinhmen Kaoliang Commemorative Wine (58% ABV) aged for 10 years** and **Yilan Millet Wine**. This process allows the essence, resins, and volatile oils within the leaves to slowly release, rendering the aroma more "bright" and "sweetly fragrant."
This is a botanical formulation from ancient times.
When you light it, you may find yourself subtly resonating with others in the space—perhaps a practitioner, an apothecary, or an incense maker, meeting within the same wisp of smoke.
✨ This is our closest encounter with the ancients, a journey back to the mountains and forests, and a return to the heart.

- [Arborvitae] The earliest use of arborvitae was by monks in monasteries for incense during meditation. Ancient people called it "bai zi" (cypress seed), and its leaves and fruit could be used in incense. Its faint woody aroma is like a breath of mountain air that allows for quiet respiration.
