Slow down with Japanese Matcha Pressed Incense, a modern incense style designed to be gently warmed so the aroma blooms softly. Made with real matcha, it creates a calm, tea-room atmosphere that feels subtle and comforting for evenings, meditation, or a quiet reset at home. Choose from three designs: Flower, Tea, or Pine.
To use, place 2–3 pieces on a gently warmed plate and let the matcha scent rise naturally. Each piece can release aroma for about 20–30 minutes at the right temperature, and after the scent fades, the shape remains, so you can return it to the card as a small object of beauty or reuse it as an aroma stone with a drop of essential oil. Made with matcha and tabu powder as a natural binder.

Japanese Incense
The Japanese incense culture was introduced from India and China along with Buddhism around the 6th century. Initially, incense was used in temples for religious ceremonies. However, during the Heian period (794–1185), nobles began creating "takimono," blends of aromatic materials, to scent their rooms and clothing. This marked a shift from religious to secular use, integrating incense into daily life. In the Edo period (1603–1868), incense stick manufacturing techniques were introduced from China, leading to widespread use among the general populace. Today, incense is cherished for relaxation and enhancing living spaces, reflecting Japan's unique aesthetic and lifestyle.
