Somalia’s best frankincense genera unite to a fresh, aromatically dry scent. They are harvested in an area where the Majerteen Tribe is of great importance. Beeyo (Boswellia carterii) brings in a high content of α-Pinen but only little α-Thujen. Maydi (Boswellia frereana) is characterized by its high content of α-Thujen but little α-Pinen.
In this way, the most popular trees of Somalia coalesce to form an unbeatable team.
The initial freshness is surprisingly lasting, settled somewhere between herbaceous, aromatic and dry. Only after a while, the sweet balsamic notes typical for frankincense come out.
Since the essential oils react with each other and form compounds, the fragrance differs slightly compared to a fresh blend of the essential oils.
Closely accompanied from the resin harvest to the bottle
We buy the frankincense resin directly from small farmers. It originates from wild-growing trees in Somalia. Our farmers collect, clean and sort it. We support this process on site and, after many years of gathering knowledge and experience, are able to assess the quality of the resins ourselves.
For getting the best quality it is important that the trees are harvested only once a year, with breaks every two years, and that they have close seasons during periods of drought. We only distill the best quality and fresh resin, which results in the outstanding quality of our products. We don’t know of any other company that works comparably. We accompany the entire production process, from the resin to the bottle. We extract frankincense hydrosol and essential oil from the high-quality raw material by means of gentle steam distillation.
Varietal purity is very important to us, because like this the different characters of the various types of frankincense can be experienced.
