There are several Sacred Hojari Frankincense Resin types available in the market, and one should be sure about where they come from.

The Hojari grade frankincense resin comes only from Oman, and if you have seen others being sold and come from Yemen, Somalia or any other country, those are not the Sacred Hojari.

Types of Sacred Hojari Frankincense Resin

Oman is known to be the only producer of sacred frankincense, and due to the increasing demand from the world market, there are some out there who will brand other frankincense resin as sacred.

The Omani Hojari Frankincense is also known to be the highest and best grade globally, and this is why many are now seeking the sacred frankincense resin.

These resins, which were once worth their weight in gold, are 100% naturally harvested from the Boswellia Sacra tree that grows in the deserts of Oman.

The resins are also handpicked in a tedious process that is done once a year. There are four main grades of resin that is harvested, and in total, it takes about 30 to 40 days.

Due to popular demands nowadays, many people have resorted to giving fancy names and grades to the resins, mostly by sorting the colours. However, from what we learned, there are four main grades, which are;

1. Sultan Hojari Frankincense Resin

• Premium 6-Star Grade that is presented to the Sultanate of Oman and Royalty.
• Only a minimal amount is available for the world market.
• The scent is citrus, lemon and very fresh.
• Colour: White to pale blue and green.
• Use: Consume and burn.

2. Green Hojari Frankincense Resin

• Most people seek premium Grade.
• The scent is citrus, lemon and fresh.
• Colour: Pale green to yellowish-green.
• Use: Consume and burn.
• Benefits: Multiple healing properties for external and internal use.
• Other Names: Sultan Hojari, Royal Hojari.

3. Brown Hojari Frankincense Resin

• General high grade that is sought for burning.
• The scent is a much stronger frankincense smell.
• Colour: Brown to dark brown.
• Use: Burn only.
• Benefits: Those who prefer a slightly less citrus scent and more of the frankincense scent. Serves the same purpose as the other grades.

4. Black Hojari Frankincense Resin

• The final resin grade before the tree is exhausted.
• Limited quantities available due to high demand.
• Colour: Dark brown to black.
• The scent is sweet, spicy and a little peppery.
• Resin is sticky.
• Use: Burn only
• Benefits: For purifying the atmosphere, enhancing your senses, and grounding your connection whilst deepening meditation. It energises the air, bringing vitality and purification to your home and environment from negative energies.

Other Frankincense Grades

Because of the high demand for quality frankincense resin, many sellers have new and clever names for the grading system. They include;

• Superior Bone White
• Honey Hojari
• Lemon Hojari
• Yellow Hojari

Apparently, all of the above names are actually gimmicks created by western marketeers to be different and push sales. Over in the Middle East, names like these don’t seem to exist.

What happens is that because the resins are all random and raw, you often get discolouration from different grades. They then pick out the different colours and create a new name for them.

What Frankincense Resin Do We Sell?

At the Green Daun New Age Craft Shop, we sell all the four main Sacred Hojari Frankincense resins from Oman.

We are not a wholesaler or supplier, but we get our stock from a reputable supplier; hence our quality is well controlled.

The Sacred Frankincense resin is also sold in glass amber jars of 20 grams. Amber is used to preventing the resin from turning colour when in contact with light.

We also sell special gold charcoal tablets, which are best used when burning the resin. These gold charcoal tablets have a special coating that prevents the smoke of the charcoal from clashing with the resin smell.

Buying Sacred Frankincense Resin Online

This is mentioned because if you are a first-time user, you should see, touch, and smell the product to know the difference among the many frankincense resins.

Because frankincense resin comes from a tree, numerous other trees also provide resins, and often, consumers are easily fooled if you do not know what the high grades smell like.

Nowadays, there are many unscrupulous sellers online which deceive the consumers by showing photos of the actual product, and when you buy and receive the items, it is not the same thing.

To avoid being cheated, I recommend you visit our store to see the actual product, then at least you know you have bought the real thing from a reputable seller in Malaysia.
