Kneaded Incense Traditionally used for the Japanese Tea Ceremony, this ancient form of incense is blended, kneaded, and buried underground in earthenware jars, and left to mature for three to five years. These incense "balls" are characterized by a sweet, creamy scent. They are not ignited by flame, but heated using charcoal or a compact wood chip heater. Incense Ceremony ...
