Dragon's Blood Resin

With a name like that, it's no surprise this resin has collected centuries of legends. Dragon's blood is a deep, ruby-red resin that comes from the fruit of a climbing rattan palm native to Southeast Asia. The sticky red coating on the fruit is gathered, dried, and shaped into the rough little chunks you see here.

For hundreds of years it's been traded across the world. It has been prized as a red pigment for paints, dyes and varnishes, and burned as incense in temples and homes. Today it's a favourite for anyone who loves a warm, cozy scent in their space.

When heated, dragon's blood gives off a rich, sweet, slightly spicy aroma with hints of amber and vanilla. Many people burn it to clear the air, set a calm mood for meditation or prayer, or simply make a room feel warm and inviting.

How to enjoy it
Place a small piece on a lit charcoal disc in a heatproof dish or incense burner, and let the smoke slowly fill the room. You can also warm it on a resin burner for a softer scent with less smoke. Grinding a bit into a fine powder lets you blend it with other herbs or resins, like juniper, sage or frankincense.

Good to know
Dragon's blood resin is for burning only and is not meant to be eaten. Burn it in a well-ventilated space, never leave it unattended, and keep it away from children and pets. Its red colour can stain fabric and surfaces, so handle it with care.
