Among agarwood from the Xingzhou category, Borneo is considered one of the most premium producing regions. This vast island in Indonesia covers about three-quarters of Borneo, approximately 15 times the size of Taiwan, yet with only half the population. Borneo's rainforests are abundant, particularly renowned for agarwood. In recent years, due to extreme harvesting, its output has drastically decreased, making high-quality Borneo agarwood quite rare and its acquisition a matter of luck.
Borneo agarwood is characterized by its rich aroma, often with a cooling sensation, sometimes mixed with notes of frankincense or fruity floral scents. Its flavor profile is mellow and sweet, making it an ideal choice for consumers seeking high-quality agarwood.

Born in Hsinchu, Taiwan, in 1983, with a background in craft design. He traveled the streets of Japan, experiencing how wooden art infused warmth and profound vitality into old alleyways. Objects that seemed like fragments of time, carrying traces of history and outlines of the future, sought a delicate balance between opposition and harmony. This transformed into refined works, closely connecting the vision of a new generation with the simplicity of the old era. Agarwood, once ground into powder for appreciation, was solemnly placed in prominent areas of homes in Japan, symbolizing vitality and light.
The agarwood originates from its production site, pure and flawless, untouched by artificial carving, boiling, lacquering, or fragrances. It is presented in its most original form. Through ancient techniques of aroma extraction, the outer layer of deadwood is meticulously peeled by hand, revealing the true soul of the agarwood. This not only imbues it with eternal vitality but also allows tradition and modern craftsmanship to subtly intertwine at the fingertips, creating a feast for the eyes and senses. Its rich aroma, like condensed time, gently draws together past memories and future aspirations, allowing them to meet and resonate within the fragrance, continuously extending, distant, and profound.
