American Heritage Incense Bricks

Unlike incense sticks that typically rely on a bamboo core and binding agents, these bricks are made of pure, compressed cedar wood. This results in a cleaner, more authentic wood-smoke aroma without the chemical or floral undertones often found in stick incense.

While a dedicated incense brick burner is ideal for containing the ash, any heat-resistant surface like a ceramic dish or stone tray will work. Just ensure the surface can safely handle the heat of the smoldering wood.

Each brick is designed for a slow, steady burn that typically lasts between 15 to 20 minutes. Because they are dense wood, they release a concentrated fragrance that lingers in a room long after the brick has finished smoldering.

No, these bricks are crafted from natural cedar wood without the use of synthetic oils, binders, or artificial fragrances. You are getting the raw, grounding scent of the wood itself.

After igniting the edge and letting it flame for a few seconds, simply blow it out gently. The brick should then begin to smolder and release a steady stream of aromatic smoke.
