Cut and Sifted Palo Santo Grains – Premium Quality for Charcoal and Incense Blends
Bring the sacred essence of Palo Santo into your spiritual practices with our cut and sifted Palo Santo grains, carefully prepared for those seeking the grounding, purifying aroma of Palo Santo in a versatile format. These grains are specially cut and sifted to a consistent grain size of 3-5 mm, ensuring a smooth, controlled burn that is ideal for use on charcoal or as part of coarse incense blends. Perfect for ceremonial and personal use, these grains deliver the rich, woody aroma of Palo Santo in its most adaptable form.
Sustainably Sourced and Naturally Aged Wood
Each grain is sourced responsibly from Palo Santo trees that have naturally fallen and aged on the forest floor. Over 4 to 10 years, the wood undergoes a natural transformation that concentrates resins and enhances its fragrance, creating a deeply aromatic and spiritually potent product. By choosing these Palo Santo grains, you support ethical and sustainable harvesting practices that protect living trees and preserve dry tropical forests in South America, particularly in Ecuador and Peru. These sustainable practices help to maintain the sacred and ecological value of Palo Santo for generations to come.
Consistent Grain Size for Reliable and Balanced Burning
Our cut and sifted Palo Santo grains are uniform in size, providing a steady, balanced burn. This consistency enhances their usability on charcoal and in incense blends, allowing for an even release of Palo Santo’s calming aroma. Unlike larger pieces, which can burn unpredictably, the uniform grain size ensures a controlled burn that releases a steady stream of the sweet, woody, and citrusy fragrance unique to aged Palo Santo. This makes these grains particularly well-suited for rituals, meditation sessions, or any setting that benefits from a consistent and smooth release of aroma.

Versatile Applications for Cut and Sifted Grains
These Palo Santo grains offer multiple uses to meet a variety of spiritual and wellness needs, providing flexibility and convenience:

The Therapeutic Properties of Palo Santo
The grains contain the essential aromatic compounds responsible for Palo Santo’s unique therapeutic qualities:
d-Limonene: Known for its uplifting, citrusy scent, this terpene enhances mental clarity, lifts the mood, and creates a sense of calm.
Alpha-terpineol: Adds a soothing floral note to the aroma, contributing to Palo Santo’s calming and grounding effects.
Carvone: Provides a subtle minty undertone, adding depth and freshness to the fragrance.
These compounds contribute to the wood’s balancing effects, which support emotional well-being, encourage a positive mindset, and promote spiritual clarity.
