Baieido Byakudan Kokoh – Japanese Sandalwood Incense Sticks Gift Box

Notice: This incense fragrance is no longer manufactured by Baieido and is no longer available.

Baieido Byakudan Kokoh (白檀古香) are premium Japanese sandalwood incense sticks presented in an elegant gift box. They belong to the exclusive Kokoh range by the long-established manufacturer Baieido and are distinguished by their classic sandalwood fragrance and careful traditional craftsmanship.

Byakudan Kokoh – The classic fragrance of sandalwood

At the heart of this fragrance composition is sandalwood, known in Japanese as Byakudan (白檀). This aromatic wood has a long history in Japanese incense culture and is among the highly valued traditional incense ingredients.

Sandalwood is known for its soft, warm and characteristically woody fragrance. In Byakudan Kokoh, this classic sandalwood character takes centre stage. The composition is particularly suited to enthusiasts of traditional Japanese woody fragrances.

The complete formula and geographical origin of the sandalwood used are not documented. It is therefore not possible to reliably identify a particular sandalwood species or region of origin.

The Kokoh range – Carefully selected aromatic ingredients

The Kokoh range is among Baieido's most prestigious incense collections. According to Baieido's North American distributor, the aromatic ingredients used in this range are personally selected by members of the Nakata family.

According to the same source, the incense sticks are also made entirely by hand using traditional methods. The combination of carefully selected ingredients and skilled craftsmanship is a defining feature of this distinctive incense range.

While Jinkoh Kokoh focuses on the fragrance of agarwood, Byakudan Kokoh is dedicated to sandalwood. Both varieties belong to the same premium product range but have different aromatic characteristics.

An elegantly designed gift box

Baieido Byakudan Kokoh is presented in a decorative gift box. The outer box has a light-coloured, finely textured surface. Inside is a green presentation tray with a gold-coloured lining, holding a slim case containing the incense sticks.

The understated design, featuring Japanese characters, emphasises the traditional character of this incense. The gift box is particularly suitable as a present for enthusiasts of Japanese incense and anyone who appreciates classic sandalwood fragrances.

The package contains approximately 20 short incense sticks, each measuring around 8.3 cm in length.
