Copal resin has been used ritually by Mesoamericans for centuries.
Crystallized copal resin chunks are placed on burning charcoal which produces a thick, sweet smoke.
Copal resin is traditionally burned in protection, cleansing and purification ceremonies.
Large amounts of Copal Incense were burned on top of the Aztec and Mayan pyramids.
This is a non-combustible resin incense, which means heat must be applied to release its fragrance (usually with a self-lighting charcoal tablet).
To use incense, ignite a charcoal tablet and place in a heat-proof container. You can grind the incense to a fine powder and sprinkle on the glowing tablet. Or place resin on tablet and cover the heat proof container.
